When multiple domains are hosted on a single server, sharing system resources, there is a high possibility of sabotage or inadvertent activity that may compromise the integrity of data. Setting appropriate security levels for a domain can check misuse or malevolent activity.
Depending on the security level chosen, certain services for the domain run in protected mode within the restricted environment of the domain's file system, technically referred to as a chrooted environment. This prohibits the resources of the secured domain from unauthorized access; also, the administrator and users of the secured domain cannot access data or resources pertaining to other domains on the Parallels Pro Control Panel server.
Parallels Pro Control Panel offers three security levels:
For details on each security level, refer to the Server Administrator Help (accessible through the Help option on the System Menu of the control panel.)
