Cloudflare Center of Excellence
Our anchor practice. Access, Gateway, WARP, Tunnel, DLP, CASB, Email Security, Browser Isolation, and AI Gateway — architected, deployed, and operated by engineers who do nothing else.
Operational · 4 managed tenantsAdvisory, vendor-agnostic procurement, and managed Cloudflare One under one accountable partner. Every control we recommend carries a number: what it costs, and how much annualized loss exposure it removes.
Managed tenants · quantified quarterly
We organize around Centers of Excellence rather than a service catalog. Each one owns a discipline end to end — strategy, vendor selection, deployment, and day-2 operations — and each reports its results back into the CRQ model.
Our anchor practice. Access, Gateway, WARP, Tunnel, DLP, CASB, Email Security, Browser Isolation, and AI Gateway — architected, deployed, and operated by engineers who do nothing else.
Operational · 4 managed tenantsSASE integration, VPN and firewall retirement, ZTNA design, segmentation review, and Zero Trust maturity assessment against a measured baseline.
Architect · MigrateCyber risk quantification, tools rationalization, and control-gap analysis. Home of the CRQ platform — where technical posture becomes a financial statement.
Quantify · RationalizeGuardrails, prompt-injection defense, and DLP for the AI your business already shipped. Shadow-AI discovery, model-access governance, and inline inspection of every prompt.
Govern · EnablePlatform value optimization, staff augmentation and co-delivery, incident-response readiness, and M&A security integration. Get more from what you already own before buying more.
Optimize · Co-deliverExternal exposure management, compromise assessment, offensive security, and 24×7 detection and response backed by edge telemetry.
Detect · RespondWe resell, but we don’t lead with a line card. Every recommendation is modeled in CRQ first — if a control you already own closes the gap, that is the recommendation.
Most partners start with a product. We start with a number — because you cannot prioritize what you have not priced.
We baseline your control environment and model annualized loss exposure across 16 threat categories. Five days from contract to a defensible number.
We rank every candidate control by risk bought down per dollar — including the ones already in your stack. Overlaps get retired, gaps get sequenced.
We deploy and run it from our multi-tenant console, and the model updates as posture changes. Your board sees the same number we do.
We specialize in regulated, high-consequence environments — the places generic IT shops avoid.
VPN retirement, third-party access control, and PCI-aligned segmentation.
HIPAA-aligned access, clinician device posture, and PHI data-loss prevention.
FedRAMP-oriented controls, citizen-service protection, and mission assurance.
Developer access, AI guardrails, and secure-by-default product platforms.
Every engagement closes with a number. Here is what that has looked like across the portfolio.
Nine Cloudflare One controls took inherent exposure from $39.7M to $10.1M residual — $2.19M of annual control spend returning 13.5× in risk bought down.
Clinical systems moved behind identity-aware Access with PHI-aware DLP inline. CASB surfaced as the next best action at $3.9M/yr of further reduction.
Mid-deployment, four uncovered threat categories were still carrying $6.9M. Modeling DLP, CASB, SWG and device posture removed $10.2M for $634K a year.

The fastest Zero Trust wins start with identity and app inventory, not the tunnel you’re trying to kill.

Talk to the practice lead →CRQ turns your control environment into a financial statement. Inherent exposure, residual exposure, and the exact dollar value every Cloudflare One control buys down — mapped to NIST CSF 2.0 and MITRE ATT&CK, and priced against what it costs to run.
16 threat categories — ransomware, BEC, insider, GenAI leakage, API abuse — each carrying an annualized loss expectancy before and after controls. No red-amber-green.
Inherent · Residual · Bought downReduction is attributed to a named Cloudflare One control with a stated effect on likelihood and impact, against a named ATT&CK technique. Defensible in front of a CFO.
NIST CSF 2.0 · MITRE ATT&CKUnaddressed controls ranked by modeled annual risk reduction against annual cost, with a return-per-dollar figure. The roadmap sorts itself.
Next best actionCRQ ships with an MCP server behind Cloudflare Access. An AI agent runs the same what-if analysis a human would — against the same live model, with its identity verified on every call.
MCP · Access-protectedDemonstration environment — all CRQ figures are synthetic.
The same model, read by different people in the building. Each of these is a conversation CRQ is built to win.
Defend spend with modeled risk reduction instead of fear. Show what each line item removes from the balance sheet, and what happens if it is cut.
Replace a red-amber-green heatmap with annualized loss expectancy in dollars, expressed as a percentage of revenue the board already understands.
Rank every unaddressed control by modeled annual reduction against annual cost. The roadmap orders itself, and the order is defensible.
Where two controls cover the same category, the model shows the marginal contribution of the second one. Frequently it is close to zero.
Quantify what you are inheriting before the deal closes, and price the integration work against the exposure it removes on day one.
CRQ exposes an MCP server behind Cloudflare Access. Your AI agents run the same what-if analysis your analysts do, against the same live model, with identity verified on every call.
Traditional VARs sell you a license and leave. Pure consultancies write you a strategy they never have to implement. We do all three, and the CRQ model keeps us honest about it: procurement recommendations have to survive the same math as everything else.
That means the answer is sometimes “you already own this, configure it properly.” We would rather be right than transactional.
