DDoS report, certificate changes, QR phishing, and more
In this week's episode, we discuss different topics from blogs that we published in the previous couple of weeks, right after our Developer Week 2024 .
Host João Tomé is joined by our Field CTO, Trey Guinn, based in San Francisco. We discuss our most recent DDoS threat report for Q1 2024, highlighting the continued increase in DDoS attacks and emerging trends. Additionally, we address Cloudflare's efforts to ensure our customers aren't affected by Let's Encrypt's certificate chain change, emphasizing the importance of certificates.
Also mentioned: Cloudflare Code Orange tested in a real situation; Internet trends surrounding the total eclipse seen in North America, leading to drops in internet traffic in Mexico, the US, and Canada; the launch of Foundation DNS – our new enterprise-grade authoritative DNS offering; QR phishing and our measures to protect against this new form of phishing.
Our Developer Educator, Craig Dennis, celebrates Meta Llama 3's availability on Cloudflare Workers AI for developers building their AI tools.
Lastly, Michael Keane and Noelle Kagan, from our Product Marketing and Product teams, discuss Cloudflare's recognition in the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Security Service Edge.
