From Shared cPanel Hosting to Managed Cloud Operations

Cloud1 migrated more than 15 applications from one malware-exposed cPanel environment, added WAF protection, and continues to maintain the cloud-hosted estate.

Malware exposure

Cloud operations

Migrated, protected, and maintained

WAFLess downtime

Context

An Indonesian education organization operated more than 15 applications and associated subdomains from a single shared cPanel hosting environment.

Challenge

Malware infections and hosting issues could affect multiple applications because they shared one environment. The organization needed to move the estate to cloud hosting, improve its security posture, and reduce service disruption.

What Cloud1 did

Inventoried the applications, subdomains, runtime dependencies, and migration sequence.
Migrated the applications from the shared cPanel host to cloud hosting in manageable stages.
Added WAF protection and coordinated the DNS, TLS, and application cutovers.
Continued supporting the environment through an ongoing Cloud1 maintenance arrangement.

Outcome

Completed the migration of more than 15 applications and their associated subdomains.
Reduced the shared-hosting and malware exposure that previously affected the application estate.
Improved the environment's security and reliability, with less downtime after the migration.
Established ongoing cloud maintenance for the applications.
