Starting today, Cloudflare’s API Gateway can protect GraphQL APIs against malicious requests that may cause a denial of service to the origin.

Continuing a review of the new National Cybersecurity Strategy, today I look at the second pillar, Disrupt and Dismantle Threat Actors. It’s heavy on collaboration, information sharing, and integrated response, and lays out five objectives that, on the surface, make sense: However, reading through the specifics of the five objectives, I see major challenges in achieving some of these.
