What Secure Hosting does

Secure Hosting, Ltd. (operating as SECUREHOST.COM) is a privately held, founder-owned offshore hosting provider established in 2001 and headquartered in Nassau, The Bahamas. The company operates three company-owned data centres across two sovereign jurisdictions — Nassau, Freeport (The Bahamas), and Hamilton (Bermuda, opened February 2025) — positioning itself as a privacy- and compliance-oriented alternative to onshore cloud providers, with claimed legal protection under Bahamian and Bermudian e-commerce legislation (Electronic Transactions Act, Computer Misuse Act, Data Protection laws).

The core product portfolio spans secure cloud hosting (VMware-powered with NVMe tiers ranging from Cloud-100 at $95/month to Cloud-800 at $575/month), secure dedicated servers (PC-100 through PC-400, $99–$550/month), Advanced Hosting bundles (private cloud, clustered hosting, PCI DSS compliant hosting, and disaster recovery with warm/hot options), Zimbra-based secure email and collaboration, offshore colocation ($299/month up to 4U), and Veeam-powered offsite backups ($75 per TB). The underlying stack combines VMware virtualization with Cisco and Juniper firewalling/IDS, two-factor authentication, VPN access, biometric facility controls, Tier-1 redundant fiber connectivity up to 10 Gbps, and TRUSTe and PCI DSS certifications.

Secure Hosting monetizes exclusively through recurring monthly subscriptions, with pricing ranging from $95/month entry-level cloud to custom enterprise configurations. The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales via website, phone (1-242-502-8700), and email, targeting financial institutions, credit card companies, payment processors, and privacy-conscious businesses globally. Distribution is entirely direct — there is no channel or reseller network — and the company emphasizes personal consultation and customized solutions for mission-critical applications, supported by a 24/7 NOC and a 30-day money-back guarantee on cloud services.
