|
16 | | -To allow Zero Trust to discover shadow IT in your traffic: |
| 16 | +To allow Cloudflare to discover shadow IT in your traffic, you must set up [HTTP filtering](/cloudflare-one/policies/gateway/initial-setup/http/). |
17 | 17 |
|
18 | | -- Turn on the [Gateway proxy](/cloudflare-one/policies/gateway/proxy/) for HTTP and network traffic. |
19 | | -- Turn on [TLS decryption](/cloudflare-one/policies/gateway/http-policies/tls-decryption/) to inspect HTTPS traffic. |
20 | | -- Ensure any network traffic you want to inspect is not routed around Gateway by a [Split Tunnel](/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-devices/warp/configure-warp/route-traffic/split-tunnels/). |
