Meet the Secure Hosting Alliance at CloudFest 2025

We’re proud to showcase the i2Coalition’s newest initiative, the Secure Hosting Alliance (SHA), at the world’s top cloud computing event. When you get to CloudFest 2025 you will have two chances to connect with the SHA and find out more about what we’re doing to make the web hosting industry better for everyone.

Have you ever been to a cocktail party in a theme-park chateau? Time to check that one off your bucket list: running from 7:00-9:00pm on March 17 at Schloss Baltasar in Europa-Park, you can meet the people behind the SHA, as well as other members and leaders of the i2Coalition, at our launch party. Please RSVP here if you want to attend this party—and we really want you to attend.

Then at 9:00am on March 20 in the .COM Ballroom, join SHA Director David Snead as he hosts “Ending the Race to the Bottom: How Secure and Ethical Hosting Can Drive Trust and Profit”. This expert panel will show how prioritizing security, privacy, and ethical practices isn’t just good for the hosting industry—it’s great for your business and your key stakeholders as well. You’ll find out how initiatives like the SHA Trust Seal can help hosting providers attract loyal customers, increase revenue, strengthen valuation, and shape the future of hosting by leading with integrity.

CloudFest takes place March 17-20 at Europa-Park in Rust, Germany. This is the most important event on the calendar for most people in the internet infrastructure industry—you will see many friendly faces throughout the festival, both onstage and in the crowd.
