As of my last update in September 2021, the deployment of Cloudflare’s web application firewall (WAF) by Melbourne Airport and its move to Cloudflare’s global network edge to enhance web security and protect against DDoS attacks had not been reported. Therefore, I cannot confirm the accuracy or details of the specific deployment mentioned in the text.
However, it is not uncommon for organizations, including airports, to implement robust security measures to protect their IT infrastructure and networks from cyber threats like DDoS attacks. Cloudflare is a well-known provider of web security and DDoS protection services, and many companies choose to work with them to strengthen their cybersecurity posture.
To get the latest and most accurate information on Melbourne Airport’s security upgrades and partnership with Cloudflare, I recommend checking reputable news sources or official statements from both Melbourne Airport and Cloudflare.
