Cloudflare Introduces Adaptive Intelligence Against Automated Cyber Attacks

SAN FRANCISCO — Cloudflare said it is introducing Adaptive Intelligence, described as a real-time detection engine that continuously rewrites its own defenses so automated attackers cannot settle on a static target.

The press release argues that AI and cheap tooling have lowered the cost of launching automated attacks, so “taller walls” fail when scaling an attack is nearly free. Cloudflare says the system learns from more than a trillion web visits a day. Forward-looking-statement language on the source page applies.
