Web Application Firewall
Block SQLi, XSS, and OWASP Top 10 attacks at the edge before they reach your server.
Cloudflare Tunnel
Expose your VPS services to the internet without opening firewall ports. Zero-trust, no public IP needed.
Analytics & Bot Insights
Real-time traffic analytics showing requests, bandwidth, threats blocked, and bot activity.
One-Click Activation
Enable Cloudflare from your cPanel in seconds. DNS switches automatically, zero downtime.
Cloudflare Tunnel:
No Open Ports. No Risk.
Traditional hosting exposes your server's IP address to the internet. Every open port is a potential attack surface. Cloudflare Tunnel inverts this — your server dials out to Cloudflare, Cloudflare proxies traffic back. Your origin IP stays completely hidden. No inbound firewall rules needed.
Expose a web app running on your VPS to the internet without opening firewall ports. Cloudflare Tunnel creates an encrypted outbound-only connection.
Require authentication before anyone reaches your internal services. Add email/SSO login in front of any app with Cloudflare Access.
Running behind a restrictive network or NAT? Tunnel out through Cloudflare regardless of your network topology.
Share a local development server with a client or teammate securely — no VPN, no open ports, no risk.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. All Netpedia shared, VPS, cloud, and managed WordPress plans include free Cloudflare CDN activation from your cPanel. Just click to enable — your DNS switches automatically.
Cloudflare Tunnel creates an encrypted outbound-only connection from your server to Cloudflare's edge network. This means you can expose web apps running on your VPS without opening any inbound firewall ports — ideal for developers, homelab users, and businesses with strict security requirements.
The opposite — Cloudflare speeds your site up significantly. By caching static assets at 300+ global edge locations, visitors load content from a server near them rather than your origin. Most sites see 30-60% faster load times after enabling Cloudflare.
Yes. Cloudflare's WAF has specific rulesets for WordPress that block common attacks like xmlrpc.php exploitation, login brute force, and plugin vulnerabilities. These rules are updated in real-time by Cloudflare's threat intelligence.
You can use the Cloudflare integration built into your cPanel without a separate Cloudflare account for basic CDN and DDoS protection. For advanced features like Cloudflare Tunnel, Zero Trust, or custom WAF rules, you'll need a free Cloudflare account which we help you set up.
Basic Cloudflare CDN, DDoS protection, and SSL are included free with all Netpedia hosting plans. Cloudflare Pro/Business features (advanced WAF, image optimization, priority support) are Cloudflare's own paid tiers available directly through your Cloudflare account.
