Critical Infrastructure Defense Project

Cloudflare and partners are providing no-cost, comprehensive cyber protections for US critical infrastructure

This project is designed to enhance defenses against key areas of enterprise risk and eligible organizations will have access to the full suite of Cloudflare Zero Trust solutions, endpoint protection and intelligence services from CrowdStrike, and Zero Trust identity solutions from Ping Identity. This project, in collaboration with core partners across the public sector, will also offer an easy-to-follow roadmap that businesses in any industry can use to implement step-by-step security measures to defend themselves from cyberattack.

Partnership Overview

Leading Zero Trust cyber security providers have partnered to launch the Critical Infrastructure Defense Project (CIDP). Our goal is to quickly improve the cyber readiness of vulnerable infrastructure in US critical industries — hospitals, energy utilities, and water utilities — by providing eligible organizations free services and support. The combination of cyber security capabilities offered by the project enables a robust Zero Trust defense-in-depth approach that can be implemented quickly.

“This is first and foremost a public service initiative to secure the endpoints and data of some of the most important critical infrastructure entities in the country. We are in a position to help and we want to do all we can. Today, CrowdStrike is offering two no-cost capabilities in endpoint protection and intelligence services to help critical organizations in the U.S. better protect themselves against evolving threats and ensure critical functions for Americans are not disrupted.”
