Configuring Cloudflare DNS

Add a custom domain in the dashboard first — see Custom domains.

Steps

1. Cloudflare dashboard → your domain → SSL/TLS → Overview → mode Full.
2. DNS → Records → Add record
3. CNAME: Name = subdomain, Target = service default host (e.g. srv-abc123.breachfix.com), Proxy = DNS only during verification.
4. Verify in BreachFix Cloud dashboard.
5. Optionally enable Proxied (orange cloud) after verification.

Root + www

CNAME www to your service host; use apex flattening or redirect apex → www. Add and verify both hostnames separately.

Verification

• dig CNAME app.example.com +short
• Allow 5–15 minutes for propagation
• TLS errors after proxying: confirm SSL mode is Full, not Full Strict
