# UniFi CyberSecure Explained: Proofpoint IDS/IPS + Cloudflare Content Filtering

Published 16 Jun 2026 · Category: Knowledge · Web: https://level-floor.bnr.la/blog/unifi-cybersecure-proofpoint-cloudflare/

*Ubiquiti's UniFi CyberSecure turns your UniFi gateway into an enterprise-grade security appliance — adding Proofpoint-powered intrusion prevention and Cloudflare-powered content filtering, all processed locally. Here's what the CyberSecure and CyberSecure Enterprise licences add, and which one fits your network.*

UniFi Network already includes solid built-in security — a stateful firewall, threat management and basic content filtering. UniFi CyberSecure is Ubiquiti's premium add-on that takes that protection to an enterprise level, using two best-in-class engines that run locally on your gateway (so your traffic never leaves your network for inspection, keeping latency low and data private).


## The two engines inside CyberSecure


CyberSecure enhances UniFi Network in two areas, with continuous signature and category updates:
Intrusion Detection & Prevention (IDS/IPS), powered by Proofpoint — deep packet inspection against a large, continuously-updated set of threat signatures (exploits, malware command-and-control, scans and known-bad traffic).
Enhanced content & domain filtering, powered by Cloudflare — real-time, category-based filtering backed by Cloudflare's domain intelligence, so you can block malware, phishing and unwanted content categories at the gateway.


## CyberSecure vs CyberSecure Enterprise


There are two licence tiers. Both add the same Proofpoint + Cloudflare capabilities — the difference is the depth of threat coverage and the class of gateway they target:

> **Note:** Both tiers are a per-gateway annual subscription managed in UniFi Network. Pick CyberSecure for most homes and SMBs; choose CyberSecure Enterprise when you're running a high-end gateway and want the widest signature coverage and extra threat categories.


## Which UniFi gateway do you need?


CyberSecure runs on UniFi Network gateways. The standard licence suits the popular Cloud Gateway and Dream Machine range; the Enterprise licence is aimed at Ubiquiti's high-end gateways such as the Enterprise Fortress Gateway. If you're buying a new gateway to run CyberSecure, here are the ones we stock:

**Q: Will CyberSecure slow my internet down?**

A: Inspection runs on the gateway's hardware. On a gateway matched to your connection speed the impact is minimal; the Enterprise tier is built for high-throughput networks. The lighter CyberSecure tier includes a Memory Optimized Mode for resource-constrained gateways.

**Q: Does my traffic get sent to Proofpoint or Cloudflare?**

A: No — the IDS/IPS signatures and content-filtering categories are applied locally on your gateway. Your traffic is inspected on-device, not shipped off to a third party, which keeps latency low and data private.

**Q: Do I need both licences?**

A: No. They're alternatives, not add-ons to each other — choose one tier per gateway based on the signature coverage and gateway class you need.

**Q: How do I turn it on?**

A: Add the licence to your UniFi gateway and enable CyberSecure in the UniFi Network application's security settings; signatures and categories then update automatically.
