Welcome to our weekly review of stories from our blog and other sources, covering a range of topics from product announcements, tools and features to disruptions on the Internet. João Tomé is joined by our CTO, John Graham-Cumming.

In this week's program, we go over some blog posts we wrote about Internet speed, but also our Cloudflare One Zero Trust platform being named in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Security Service Edge. We talk about some announcements, such as our new Network Analytics dashboard, and how it provides security professionals with insights into their DDoS attack and traffic landscape. There’s also a hardware deep dive, related to memory bandwidth performance and some Easter, Passover and Ramadan trends.

In our “Around NET” short segment, we “travel” to Perth, Australia, to hear from Damian Matacz, from our Network Strategy team.
