What happened

Cloudflare published a set of security-focused product updates, disclosures, and research: scannable API tokens, enhanced OAuth visibility and Managed OAuth (RFC 9728) for agent-friendly authentication, GA for resource-scoped permissions to enable least-privilege architectures, and tooling to cut token costs and detect Shadow MCP. They announced a target of 2029 for full post-quantum deployment, opened advanced client-side security detections to all users, launched Account Abuse Protection (Early Access), and made AI Security for Apps generally available with free AI discovery.
