Launches Windows and Linux web hosting plans, in addition to PCI compliance scanning and HackerSafe certification.

XSI Hosting, an internet service provider and web host and subsidiary of Xanadu Servers, Inc., announced today that it has publicly launched its flagship Windows and Linux web hosting plans, as well as a partnership with ScanAlert to offer PCI compliance scanning and HackerSafe certification.

The company's online web hosting plans cater to end-users, small to medium sized businesses, and hosting resellers. Linux plans are available with either the cPanel or Plesk control panel, and Windows plans feature solely the Plesk control panel.

XSI Hosting also offers ScanAlert Payment Card Industry (PCI) Compliance scanning, a service allowing hosting customers to accept and process credit cards on their websites. ScanAlert's HackerSafe scanning, which provides daily vulnerability testing and visual verification to website visitors, will also be available to customers.

“We have made it a priority to serve a broad spectrum of clients, even initially. Our offering of over twelve shared plans and twelve reseller plans reflects that commitment”, said Larry Stevens, founder and CEO of the company. “PCI compliance scanning is an emerging requirement in the card service industry that will eventually proliferate to all online merchants. By offering this service, we enable our customers to securely and safely process credit card payments on their own websites. That is obviously a significant competitive advantage”, he added.
