Protection built into the path to production
- Containerized, read-only production helps prevent silent code changes.
- Version-controlled Dev/Test/Live workflows make drift visible and reversible.
- Platform-wide rules reduce the need to patch every site before protection begins.
- Backups, WAF, monitoring, and managed updates provide additional layers of defense.

Advanced security features
- Containerized infrastructure isolates your site, preventing vulnerabilities from spreading.
- SSL/TLS encryption secures data in transit and all data at rest is fully encrypted.
- Role-based access, HTTPS certificates and recovery protocols guarantee resilience. This is the standard you can expect with secure WordPress hosting!
- Web Application Firewall (WAF), combined with Advanced Global CDN (AGCDN), blocks harmful traffic before it reaches your site, offering a powerful defense.
Performance at scale
- A global CDN accelerates load times by delivering content closer to users.
- Dedicated resources prevent slowdowns that are common in shared hosting environments.
- Traffic scaling automatically handles traffic surges securely and reliably.
- Advanced page and object caching optimize both static and dynamic content delivery, a critical feature of secure WordPress hosting.

Because all of our sites are hosted in a single environment, and because we have analytics on all of those sites and their versioning, we can be confident in pushing our security fixes into our Upstream and with the uptake of those updates.
