Application Security Assessment
See your real security posture and know exactly what to fix first.
An independent assessment of your edge and application security, with the highest-risk gaps named and a prioritised plan you can act on.
What it is
Most organisations don't have a clear, current picture of how exposed their digital services actually are. Configurations drift, new threats emerge, and a posture that was right two years ago quietly stops being right. We give you an honest, independent view of where you stand today, with a prioritised set of fixes.
Who it's for
Heads of Security, CISOs and CTOs who want an independent read on their edge and application security — including organisations not yet on Cloudflare, weighing up whether it's the right platform, or running a mixed vendor landscape.


What we look at
Over three to four weeks we assess your posture across five areas
- CDN and performance configuration
- WAF and application security controls
- DDoS protection and capacity
- Access control and network security
- Monitoring, alerting and incident response
We assess against good-practice criteria whatever platforms you're running today, rate the gaps by risk, and tell you what to fix first. Our deepest hands-on delivery is Cloudflare, and we're clear about that, but the assessment itself is independent of any one vendor.
What you walk away with
- A posture assessment across the five areas, with findings rated by risk
- A gap analysis showing the risk each gap creates
- Prioritised recommendations, with indicative effort
- An honest platform recommendation — including where Cloudflare is the right answer and where it isn't
Fixed-scope, fixed-price, and yours to keep.

Why CDS
Security is where our deepest technical credibility sits. We're the first EMEA ZTNA Authorised Service Delivery Partner and the most certified Cloudflare partner in EMEA — earned protecting national-scale services under real attack, including 50 million malicious requests a month mitigated on a single policing platform. However, we follow the evidence: where Cloudflare is the right answer we'll say so and we're well placed to deliver it; where it isn't, we'll tell you that too.
