I guess he's never had a horse get out of the barn.


Or a fox get into the chicken coup ;-)

He may have been looking at it from a high-level IT executive position rather than the technicians responsible for data access and maintenance.

Hosting locations may actually be more secure than on-premise servers - they may put more into infrastructure. They may know more about physical and virtual security than a small to medium business operator.

Running a hosting location under IBM i may have an advantage in object-level security, single-level store, etc.

Part of the sense of security may be that a site is hosted in its own partition, under its own IP address.
