FeatureSecurity

Secure by default.

LiteSpeed ships with the security controls hosting providers need — from WAF rule compatibility to process isolation and abuse throttling.

Included

Security Toolkit

ModSecurity compatible

Use popular ModSecurity rule sets such as OWASP CRS, Comodo and Imunify360 without Apache.

chroot & suEXEC

Run each user's PHP under their own account and isolate processes from the system.

Access control

Allow or deny by IP, subnet or country at server, virtual host or context level.

Request filtering

Reject malformed requests, oversize headers and bodies before they hit your app.

Resource limits

Cap CPU, memory and process counts per user so one site can't harm others.

CloudLinux integration

Works with LVE and CageFS for per-tenant resource and filesystem isolation.
