Case Study: UN Women Australia strengthens donation security with Cloudflare Project Galileo

UN Women Australia blocks thousands of bot attacks with Cloudflare

UN Women Australia, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to gender equality, faced malicious bot attacks targeting its online donation gateway. These BIN attacks disrupted operations and threatened financial security. With limited technical resources, the organization turned to Cloudflare and its Project Galileo initiative for assistance with application security.

Cloudflare rapidly onboarded UN Women Australia to Project Galileo, providing expert analysis and strategic advice. The solution included implementing DDoS Protection, Bot Management, and the Web Application Firewall (WAF). Cloudflare also advised switching to a more secure payment gateway integrated with Turnstile. This stopped the immediate attacks, prevented future threats, and allowed the organization to focus on its core mission without worrying about website security.
