Case Study: D2iQ blocks targeted phishing attacks with Cloudflare Email Security

D2iQ stops 21,000+ phishing attacks with Cloudflare

D2iQ, a fast-growing cloud infrastructure company, faced a significant threat from targeted spear phishing emails that were evading their existing Google Cloud filters. With over 100 such messages reaching employee inboxes weekly and a concerning internal phishing test click rate, they needed a sophisticated solution to protect their intellectual property. They turned to Cloudflare for its email security service to address this challenge.

The Cloudflare solution integrated seamlessly with D2iQ's Google Workspace, focusing on detecting and blocking low-volume, targeted phishing attacks that other filters missed. Immediately after implementation, Cloudflare stopped more than 21,000 phishing attacks out of over 10 million messages, representing over 90% of potential breaches despite being a small percentage of total traffic. This allowed D2iQ to automate its security posture and reduce reliance on employee vigilance, aligning with its core operational values.
