cflare audit

Edge Security Posture Audit

Score & Audit

Run an automated edge security audit verifying SSL modes, HSTS, DNSSEC, TLS 1.3, and email spoofing protections.

$ cflare audit <domain> [options]

📖 Full Explanation

\1 performs an exhaustive security baseline inspection of your domain's Cloudflare settings. It evaluates SSL encryption modes (flagging insecure Flexible SSL), validates HSTS headers, verifies DNSSEC cryptographic signatures, inspects email SPF/DMARC records, and assigns an overall letter grade (A+ through F).

⚙️ Command Options & Flags

Option / Flag Description Default
--fix Interactively prompt to automatically remediate discovered vulnerabilities false
--strict Enforce strict zero-trust standards (requires Full Strict SSL and DNSSEC) false

🔬 Technical Corollary & Edge Mechanics

Inspects multiple Cloudflare zone endpoints concurrently: \1, \1, \1, and \1. Computes a composite security score (0-100) based on NIST and CIS Cloudflare security benchmarks.

🎯 Real-World DevOps Use Cases

Pre-Production Security Checklist

Verify that a newly registered domain meets enterprise compliance requirements prior to launch.
