Externa No Attack Traffic Tax feature ensures that your Cloudflare investment goes toward protecting your business, not punishing it for being a target. Unlike traditional service models that charge for bandwidth consumed during attacks, Externa includes unmetered DDoS protection at Layer 7, so you’re never billed for malicious traffic that shouldn’t reach your infrastructure in the first place. This eliminates unpredictable costs during high-risk periods and reinforces a security-first approach that prioritises resilience over revenue.
Combined with enterprise-grade capabilities like managed WAF rules, bot mitigation, and real-user performance tuning, Externa provides powerful protection and performance enhancements in a transparent, cost-effective package. Black Talon can implement and manage these features as part of a fully delivered service, ensuring each customer benefits from high-impact security.

Externa seamlessly on-ramps to Interna. This ensures that as your external protections mature, you can easily expand into internal security use cases, without starting from scratch. Externa is designed with future-ready architecture, allowing organisations to transition smoothly into Cloudflare’s Zero Trust ecosystem when the time is right. Whether you need to secure internal applications, enforce access controls, or adopt Secure Web Gateway and CASB capabilities, the path from Externa to Interna is fully aligned and technically compatible.
This seamless evolution is made possible through unified policy management, shared infrastructure components, and Black Talon’s hands-on support throughout the process. We help you scale from protecting public-facing assets to building a complete Zero Trust environment, ensuring consistency across teams, tools, and traffic.
