Cloudflare is rolling out three security improvements targeting non-human identities like API tokens, agents, and third-party integrations. First, new scannable API token formats with a 'cf' prefix and checksum enable credential scanners (including GitHub's Secret Scanning program) to automatically detect and revoke leaked tokens. Second, an OAuth Connected Applications dashboard gives users visibility into which third-party apps have access to their accounts and lets them revoke access. Third, resource-scoped RBAC permissions are now generally available, allowing fine-grained least-privilege policies scoped to specific resources like Access Applications or Gateway policies rather than entire accounts. New roles have also been added at both account and zone levels.
