question: Web hosting w/ security

[BZ]

My new client expects to be the target of lots of hacker attacks, and they are looking fo a new host.

What advice can anyone give me about selecting a host and a package. their bandwidth won't justify a dedicated server.

thanks

These guys should know best.

Some top quality web hosts utilitize hardware and software solutions to deter hackers (or at least script kiddies).

What's your budget for web hosting?

 

[BZ]

I think they'd be willing to pay around $250/month, especially if there was a real advantage.

This came up with another client once, and the host sold us a dedicated DB server with shared web server. I was never convinced that there was any real benefit to that.

If you have $250/month to work with it sure looks like a dedicated server with some decent security should do the trick...
