Cloudflare outlines enhancements to its WAF payload logging that improve visibility into why rules trigger by logging precise, post-transformation fields and partial matches with before/after context, significantly reducing log size and truncation. The update leverages regex caching, optimized data structures, and encrypted logs with decryption tooling, and is currently available for Managed rules with planned expansion to custom rules, attack scoring, content scanning, and Firewall for AI.
