Hi everyone, I'm Steven from Kloudsec and we are a 100% bootstrapped startup from Singapore. We built Kloudsec because we wanted to help non-technical website owners find/fix problems.

-----

Kloudsec boasts a

* A true Anycast CDN network with 3 edge locations (London, Singapore and San Jose, US)

* A LetsEncrypt plugin to automatically add an SSL cert to any domain you have (Just enable the plugin, no programming or webserver tweaking needed)

* Offline protection (No error pages when your site is down, still show static contents)

* Experimental WAF (This is hard to get right, we're working really hard on it)

The CDN and LetsEncrypt is 100% free. The premium security plugins are free for now but will be priced later.

-----

[Who should use Kloudsec now?]

As we are in beta now, I encourage you start with casual sites that you don't mind trying with a free CDN and SSL certs for HTTPS.

Happy to take on any questions you have :)

We're obviously competitors (CloudFlare), and I'm not speaking for the company, but congratulations on building this -- it's quite impressive, especially as a small team.

I have nothing but respect for Cloudflare's engineering prowess :)

Couldflare is essential for your company website to be more than a blank page, indeed.
