High-performance web server: LiteSpeed

LiteSpeed Web Server (LSWS) is a proprietary web server, the fourth most popular web server software. In August 2019, 4.7% of the websites around the world were estimated to be using LiteSpeed. The software uses the same configuration format as Apache and provides the most Apache facilities.

LiteSpeed provides a higher speed for your website's loading.

High performance is achieved through a very efficient method of serving the static content (images, CSS, JavaScript etc.), a faster execution of the PHP code, the support for the modern content serving and compression protocols.

LiteSpeed is included for free with all hosting, Magento and premium packages, and it is available for a fee with managed VPS-es and dedicated servers.

Web hosting service protected by BitNinja

Cyber attack threat on websites is omnipresent.Web hosting clients must update regularly their websites in order to remedy the emerging security vulnerabilities. We come to meet our clients' requirements with an additional security layer provided by the BitNinja software.

BitNinja is a ready installed and configured security tool on the Hosterion servers (of shared web hosting, Magento web hosting and Premium web hosting). This system stops a good part of the attackers trying to get access with the prupose of modifying your website.

The security measures automatically applied to your web hosting account include:

• WAF (Web Application Firewall) detects and prevents SQL injection-type attacks, directory traversal, XSS, remote file inclusion, code injection, on-site and cross-site request forgery, buffer overflow, unvalidated file upload
• IDS (Intrusion Detection System)
• automatic detection and removal of the malware code
• blocking access for the low reputation IPs (using a global IP database)
• preventing the exploitation of the known system vulnerabilities (Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal, etc.)
• protection against DOS and DDOS attacks
• many other mechanisms for the protection of your web hosting account, which use artificial intelligence, too

Free SSL certificates

We offer you free SSL certificates for all the domains we host. No matter how many domains you have and no matter what hosting package you choose, install the certificates with an easy click from the control panel. Read more about SSL Certificates.

Web hosting on IPv6

Hosterion infrastructure is ready for the future: it works both on the classical IPv4 and on IPv6. The standard IPv4 appeared in the '70s. It's no wonder that this version has reached its limits and the appearance of a new version was necessary, with enough numbers (IP addresses) to deal with the multitude of internet connected devices. The web hosting packages include an IPv6 dedicated address, with no additional cost, and the connection through IPv4 is still available.

Free migration* of the web hosting accounts

If your website is already hosted by another provider, we take care of the migration with no downtime. We prepare and test the migration in advance, we choose together the right moment, day or night, to perform the migration.

* The web hosting account migration is free when transferiing cPanel account entirely to newly created cPanel account, by Full Backup (the Full Backup function must be active, you need to have enough space to generate a full backup and full access to the DNS area). If the previous provider does not use cPanel or the Full Backup function is not active, a manual migration is required, which is not done for free, ususally. Likewise, the migrations from the cPanel account to addon domain or addon domain to addon domain are not free. We will assess every individual and specific situation and we will inform you about the transfer method and about the costs.
