^ yes, exactly. Most IoT security solutions focus on the security of the device itself today, but when a device isn't patched, that security model breaks down.

Cloudflare is running a firewall in thousands of nodes in over 100 data centers. As requests are proxied through Cloudflare to the devices, Cloudflare inspects the request and checks them against a list of known attack requests. Orbit customers can additionally create custom rules to detect and filter traffic based on any traffic pattern. When rules are added, they take less than 30 seconds to propagate to all data centers, and then will protect traffic to all devices.
