Cloudflare enhances Sandbox auth with outbound Workers

Cloudflare has introduced outbound Workers to its Sandboxes, enhancing security and control for AI agents. This new feature acts as a programmatic egress proxy, allowing sandboxed code to securely connect to external services and manage authentication. Unlike traditional methods like API tokens or workload identity tokens, outbound Workers offer a zero-trust approach, preventing direct exposure of sensitive credentials. This enables developers to implement flexible, fine-grained access controls and observability for AI workloads, addressing the inherent security challenges of untrusted code execution within sandboxed environments.
