CloudLinux CageFS

CageFS is a virtualized file system and a set of tools that isolate each user in its own “cage”. It is developed by CloudLinux OS, which is a Linux-based operating system designed for web hosting servers.

CageFS prevents users from seeing each other and accessing sensitive information, such as system files, tools, etc. It also protects the server from various attacks, such as privilege escalation and information disclosure.

CageFS is transparent to the users and does not require any changes to their scripts or applications. It works with various web hosting control panels, such as cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, etc.
