Does the server include full root/administrator access?
Of course. All our servers include full administrator privileges.

An SSL certificate is a cryptographic protocol which increases the level of online data security between visitors of a website and the server where the site is located.

What is DNS?
In simple terms, we could describe a DNS as a domain address book. Just like you would use an address book to look up information related to a particular person or company by name, the same goes for domains, since they also have an “address”. When you type our address mydataknox.com in your browser, your computer uses DNS to retrieve the data about the IP addresses linked to our domain. Afterwards, your computer requests the IP address of our web server, which, finally, sends the web page to your browser.
