Access to Area 1

Beginning October 1, 2025, access and support for Email Security (formerly Area 1) will only be available through the Cloudflare dashboard. Your Email Security protection will not change, but you will no longer be able to access the Area 1 dashboard or send support requests to `@area1security.com` email addresses. For help accessing the Cloudflare dashboard, reach out to <successteam@cloudflare.com>.

When you use an [inline setup](https://developers.cloudflare.com/email-security/deployment/inline/), you can modify incoming, non-blocked messages with a few added layers of protection:

* [Text add-ons](https://developers.cloudflare.com/email-security/email-configuration/email-policies/text-addons/)
* [Link actions](https://developers.cloudflare.com/email-security/email-configuration/email-policies/link-actions/)
