I think it's pretty clear which servers are owned and which are rented.

- GekkePrutser 4y agoIt is indeed. You can also see exactly which operator it is rented from. I think it's pretty well done.
- worldofmatthew 4y agoTransparency of servers is not the same as making your users aware of a providers risks.
- Fnoord 4y agoExcept for [quote]On which level and for what purposes do external parties have access to rented servers? Hosting providers do the initial operating system installations (most often through the remote management software), after that we remove their access from the server. After this they may have access to the remote management software of the servers, so that they may aid in rebooting and reinstalling faulty servers, but they have no direct access to the operating system or the software running on the server itself.[/quote] If its a PiKVM, they can configure on the OS something like usbguard to reject the KVM keyboard (while still allowing access to the reset and power buttons via jumper). However, if its iLO, then its a BMC and I believe it has full access to the host regardless.
