History
Cloudflare was created in 2009 by Matthew Prince, Lee Holloway, and Michelle Zatlyn.[3] It received media attention in June 2011 for providing security services to the website of LulzSec, a black hat hacking group.[4] Cloudflare acts as a reverse proxy for web traffic. Cloudflare supports web protocols, including SPDY and HTTP/2. In addition to this, Cloudflare offers support for HTTP/2 Server Push.[5] From 2009, the company was venture-capital funded.[6] On August 15, 2019, Cloudflare submitted its S-1 filing for IPO on the New York Stock Exchange under the stock ticker NET.[7] It opened for public trading on September 13, 2019, priced at $15 per share.[8]
In February 2014, Cloudflare mitigated what was at the time the largest ever recorded DDoS attack, which peaked at 400 Gigabits per second against an undisclosed customer.[9] In November 2014, Cloudflare reported another massive DDoS attack with independent media sites being targeted at 500 Gbit/s.[10] In March 2013, the company defended The Spamhaus Project from a DDoS attack that exceeded 300 Gbit/s. Akamai’s chief architect stated that at the time it was “the largest publicly announced DDoS attack in the history of the Internet”.[11][12] Cloudflare has also reportedly absorbed attacks that have peaked over 400Gbit/s from an NTP Reflection attack.[13]
In 2014, Cloudflare introduced an effort called Project Galileo in response to cyberattacks against vulnerable online targets, such as artists, activists, journalists, and human rights groups. Project Galileo provides such groups with free services to protect their websites. In 2019, Cloudflare announced that 600 users and organizations were participating in the project.[14] On April 1, 2019, Cloudflare announced a new freemium Virtual Private Network service named WARP. The service would initially be available through the 1.1.1.1 mobile apps with a desktop app available later.[15] On September 25, 2019, Cloudflare released WARP to the public.[16][17] The beta for macOS and Windows was announced on April 1, 2020.[18]
A lot more there for people smarter than me.
As I recall cloudfare was in the 8ch picture and bowed out leaving them susceptible to DDoS ... unfortunately thedonald.win used them and may be lost today because of it.
