Free DDoS Protection • Uses a network of reverse proxy servers
Benefits • Your site loads faster • You require less bandwidth for your Web server • DoS and DDoS attacks no longer affect you (except for huge attacks) • Your site stays up even when your server is down (in a limited way) • It's FREE
Risks • If CloudFlare goes down, your site is down • Some visitors may see a warning message or a CAPTCHA if your security settings are too aggressive • Some cached items may take time to update (you need to use Development Mode)
