There are many different levels of web hosting services for us to choose nowadays, the common web hosting types are ASP.NET shared hosting, Windows VPS and Windows dedicated server. To most of individuals and small businesses, I think the price should be the first thing we’ve to care about, so the ASP.NET shared hosting service should be the most popular type.

What’s ASP.NET 4.5 shared hosting trust level?

You need to check many aspects before choosing a .Net hosting provider, those aspects should include .Net MVC framework, SQL Server, disk space, monthly bandwidth, hosting prices, but there’s one thing you may ignore really – “IIS Security Trust Level”.

If you’re not familiar with what’s asp.net 4.5 shared hosting trust level, here I’d like to bring you a short introduction. The trust level is real important that could affect with your site secure and performance, and a full trust level means higher risk for hackers sneak into server to make destroy. Most of small .Net hosts only can give medium trust level on their servers. If your applications need to be run a full trust mode, then you’ve to look for a web host which can give full permission to you.

<system.web>
<securityPolicy>
<trustLevel name="High" policyFile="web_hightrust.config"/>
<trustLevel name="Medium" policyFile="web_mediumtrust.config"/>
<trustLevel name="Low" policyFile="web_lowtrust.config"/>
<trustLevel name="Minimal" policyFile="web_minimaltrust.config"/>
</securityPolicy>
</system.web>

You can see there are 4 trust levels for web hosts to pre-set by default – Minimal trust, Low trust, Medium trust and High / Full trust. High trust means higher risk for hackers to sneak into server, most of Windows hosting companies doesn’t allow their customers to run full trust level by default.

- Full Trust allows the users to do everything of application pool on one Windows web server. Some of applications cannot work properly under a medium trust web server, full trust means more flexible and you’re also able to change to medium trust once your application don’t need full trust.
- Medium Trust level websites are limited to access the file system and not so flexible as full trust level web server.
- Low Trust & Minimal Trust level are 2 options to restrict the users heavily, it won’t allow users to connect to server actively. At present, there’s no Windows hosts offering such asp.net shared hosting plan yet.
