Liquid Web, a leader in dedicated servers, WordPress, VPS, GPU, and cloud hosting for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), has introduced a game-changing security enhancement: a fully encrypted cross-region private network—a rare feature among hosting providers.
This built-in encryption ensures secure data transmission across global infrastructure, addressing a critical security gap in private networking. Businesses managing sensitive customer data, financial transactions, and regulatory compliance face increasing risks, as highlighted in a NewSoftwares.net study emphasizing that unencrypted data in transit is highly vulnerable to interception, manipulation, and compliance failures.
Now included as a standard feature on all Liquid Web bare metal hosting plans, this advancement offers:
✅ Seamless security – No extra configurations or third-party VPNs needed
✅ Regulatory compliance – Simplifies adherence to standards like HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and GDPR
✅ Performance & reliability – Powered by WireGuard for near-line-rate speed, low latency, and cutting-edge encryption
Raising the Bar for Private Networking Security
Liquid Web has long led the way in virtual private cloud (VPC) networking, allowing businesses to scale bare metal infrastructure across multiple regions within a globally connected private network. Now, as the #1 dedicated hosting provider (as recognized by HostAdvice), Liquid Web is setting a new industry benchmark by making encrypted cross-region traffic the default standard.
This means customers can securely connect workloads across locations without the hassle of:
❌ Manual VPN configurations
❌ Third-party encryption tools
❌ Complicated routing adjustments
By integrating encryption at the network layer, Liquid Web ensures that data remains protected, whether traveling between North America, Europe, or beyond—delivering a secure, high-performance private network experience.
A New Industry Standard in Secure Hosting
While many hosting providers offer private networking, few encrypt cross-region connections. Even large-scale cloud providers often don’t enable encryption by default.
“For years, cross-region private networking has relied on dedicated private interconnects, assuming these links were secure. But with evolving compliance mandates and best practices, end-to-end encryption is now a necessity,” said Ryan MacDonald, Chief Technology Officer at Liquid Web.
“By making encryption standard for all inter-region traffic, we’re eliminating a major security blind spot while maintaining high performance and ease of use for our customers.”
Simplified Security & Compliance for Businesses
Previously, securing cross-region connectivity required:
🔹 Complex site-to-site VPNs
🔹 Expensive firewall appliances
🔹 Manual encryption setups
Liquid Web’s fully integrated encryption eliminates these challenges, providing:
✔ Lower operational overhead for security-conscious businesses
✔ Faster deployment for regulated industries
✔ Stronger security without added complexity
“Our mission is to deliver best-in-class hosting solutions that prioritize security, performance, and ease of use,” said Sachin Puri, Chief Growth Officer at Liquid Web.
“With cross-region encryption built-in, we’re simplifying compliance and infrastructure management. Businesses handling payments, ecommerce transactions, and personal data can now operate securely with minimal risk of breaches and cyber threats.”
Trusted Hosting, Built for the Future
This security enhancement is now available to all Liquid Web dedicated bare metal customers—with no extra setup required.
As cyber threats evolve and compliance requirements tighten, Liquid Web continues to lead with secure, high-performance hosting solutions. Businesses no longer have to choose between security and speed—they get both, fully integrated.
