2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SASE Platforms

We are honored to be recognized as a Visionary for the second consecutive year!

To us, this placement validates our commitment to an organically built, composable architecture. As organizations grapple with AI agents, post-quantum threats, and shadow IT sprawl, legacy, stitched-together platforms simply cannot keep pace. Cloudflare One is the converged networking and security “unified platform” promise, finally delivered.

Our vision is to be:

  • The fastest path to safe AI adoption: Extend your existing zero trust policies to govern workforce GenAI usage and rein in unmanaged AI agents via MCP server portals.

  • The easiest-to-use SASE platform: Simplify IT operations by consolidating point solutions on a unified control and data plane. Swiftly replace legacy VPNs and guarantee high-performance "coffee shop networking" for your users anywhere.

  • The only truly composable, programmable SASE: Weave custom business logic directly into the SASE fabric without adding bloat. Our architecture natively integrates with our edge developer platform, empowering security teams to infinitely customize their deployment.
