Six Layers of Protection
Every SpectraHost account is defended by overlapping security layers — so a single point of failure never puts your site at risk.
Network Security
DDoS protection, enterprise firewalls, and intrusion detection systems monitor and filter traffic before it reaches your server.
Server Security
Hardened operating systems, automatic security patches, and isolated accounts ensure each server is locked down from the ground up.
Application Security
ModSecurity WAF rules, malware scanning, and brute force protection defend your applications against common attack vectors.
Data Security
Encrypted backups, RAID storage arrays, and data center redundancy protect your data against loss, corruption, and hardware failure.
Access Security
Two-factor authentication, SSH key management, and IP allowlisting give you granular control over who can access your hosting.
SSL / TLS
Free SSL on every site with automatic renewal and HTTPS enforcement. Upgrade to premium DigiCert certificates for wildcard coverage and warranty.
