Cloudflare → Claude → PagerDuty: Security Monitor Pipeline

Configure Cloudflare to export WAF events, bot detection logs, DDoS mitigation triggers, and traffic anomaly data via their analytics API. Include rate limiting events, geographic access patterns, and any firewall rule matches that indicate potentially malicious activity.

Use Claude to correlate multiple Cloudflare security signals and assess the actual severity of detected threats. The AI distinguishes between false positives, automated scanning, and genuine attack patterns by analyzing request patterns, payload characteristics, and historical context. It generates incident reports with recommended response actions for confirmed threats.

Record every analyzed security event in a Google Sheets threat intelligence log with timestamps, threat classifications, severity scores, and resolution outcomes. This historical dataset allows the security team to identify attack pattern trends, measure false positive rates over time, and refine Cloudflare WAF rules based on actual threat data.

Create PagerDuty incidents for AI-confirmed threats with appropriate severity levels, detailed incident descriptions, and recommended response playbooks. Route alerts through escalation policies that match threat type to the right responder, and include Cloudflare dashboard links for immediate investigation.

Post a real-time notification to the security team's Slack channel for all confirmed incidents, including a brief summary, severity level, and link to the PagerDuty incident. For lower-severity events, aggregate them into a daily security digest so the broader engineering team maintains awareness without being overwhelmed by individual alerts.
