CageFS: isolated security for your account
CageFS is a security technology included in our hosting plans and based on a virtual file system. Its main purpose is to isolate your account from the rest of the server, so that only you can access your own information and files.
It is like having a private capsule inside the server, fully protected from the other users around it.
What benefits does CageFS provide?
With CageFS, you get several important security benefits:
-
Full account isolation
Only you can view and manage your files.
You cannot access server settings or other accounts' data, and other users cannot see yours.
-
Protection against common attacks
It blocks unauthorized access at the system level.
It prevents symbolic link attacks, which are commonly used to compromise neighboring accounts.
-
Restricted system access
It limits access to critical directories such as
/proc.It only allows safe commands and programs to run.
-
Stronger privacy
Your personal information, email, and databases remain protected even if other users share the same server.
How it fits into your hosting security
CageFS is one of the technologies we use at Bacan.com to give you a more secure, private, and reliable hosting environment. You do not need to activate it manually. It works quietly in the background every day to protect your site.
