10.05% of all domains listed on Spamhausâs Domain Blocklist (DBL) are on Cloudflare nameservers.

Cybercriminals have been exploiting these legitimate services to mask activities and enhance their malicious operations.

Cloud flare effectively masks the true location of the backend where services are being hosted, while passing on any complaints about abuse to the abused or abusive services.

Spamhaus wants to work together to strengthen trust and safety for the internet.

Cloudflare has tools and resources to provide robust services to legitimate customers while keeping all the cybercriminals off its premises.

The vast majority of abusive activity can be prevented upfront, even without any human interaction.
