Cloudflare has experienced no critical (red-classified) incidents on its status page since the February 20, 2026 outage, which stemmed from a buggy API task withdrawing over 1,100 Bring Your Own IP customer routes via BGP for about six hours, prompting a detailed post-mortem. This followed a cluster of disruptions including a January 22 route leak from Miami, December 5 traffic outage, and November 18 Bot Management bug causing the worst downtime since 2019. In response, Cloudflare rolled out its "Code Orange: Fail Small" resilience plan in December 2025 to limit failure scopes. Recent status updates note minor issues like April 2 elevated Workers errors and Buenos Aires cache latency, plus March 31 R2 APAC errors, but none reached critical severity. Ongoing risks from configuration changes, traffic surges, or software bugs could precipitate the next major event before June 30.

Classifications of an incident while it is ongoing will have no bearing on the resolution of this market. Only classifications of events that are resolved will be considered.
Qualifying incidents include outages and other issues classified as critical when they are resolved, during this market's above specified timeframe.
An incident resolved outside this market’s timeframe will only qualify if ongoing at this market’s resolution time, in which case the market will remain open until that incident is marked as “Resolved,” and resolution will be based on the first impact classification thereafter, regardless of subsequent revisions or corrections.
Revisions that upgrade an incident’s impact classification to Critical will qualify if the incident was resolved and the revision is published within this market’s timeframe.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Cloudflare (for example, on cloudflarestatus.com or cloudflarestatus.com/history); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
