Cloudflare Security in London
Cloudflare security for London organisations, where a reachable origin makes the whole arrangement optional. Everything in front of your site only applies to traffic that goes through it, so an origin address that answers directly lets anyone who finds it skip the firewall, the rate limits and the bot controls entirely.
Why this comes up
The problem
The origin server answers requests from any address, so the protection can simply be walked around.
What you get
What we deliver
- Origin restricted to accept traffic only from Cloudflare, verified by testing
- Historic DNS records checked, since old entries frequently expose the origin
- Firewall rules written for your actual traffic rather than left generic
- Rate limiting applied to the endpoints that matter, such as login and checkout
- Bot handling configured with an understanding of what it will block
- Rules tested in logging mode before enforcement, to see what they would catch

London clients usually come to us because they want senior people actually on their project rather than a large agency's B team, and because Midlands rates buy considerably more delivery per pound.

Cloudflare Security in London — common questions
- How do attackers find the origin?
- Usually through history. Old DNS records, certificate transparency logs, mail headers and subdomains that were never proxied all reveal the address, and a scan of that history is part of establishing whether your origin is genuinely hidden.
- How is the origin restricted?
- By accepting connections only from Cloudflare, enforced at the firewall or web server, and ideally with authenticated origin pulls so the check is cryptographic rather than address-based. Then it needs testing from outside to confirm direct requests actually fail.
- Should rules be enforced immediately?
- Run them in logging mode first. A rule that looks reasonable can match legitimate traffic in ways nobody predicted, and seeing what it would have blocked over a few days is considerably better than discovering it from customers who could not check out.
- Is bot protection worth enabling?
- Where automated abuse is a real problem, yes — with attention to what it affects. Legitimate automation, monitoring tools, payment callbacks and partner integrations can all be caught, so the useful configuration is one that knows what it is permitting as well as what it blocks.
- Do you work with businesses across Greater London?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout London, including London and the surrounding Greater London area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of London businesses do you usually work with?
- Clients here are usually replacing an agency, and want senior people on the work at rates that are not Central London rates. Beyond that we work across Financial Services, Professional Services, Technology, Media, Hospitality and Retail.
- Do you cover the areas around London?
- Yes — we work throughout London, including Reading, Milton Keynes, Cambridge, Brighton. London is an urban area of roughly 9,000,000+, and we take on work across the wider Greater London region rather than the city boundary alone.
