Convesio, a managed WordPress hosting and commerce infrastructure provider, today announced it has earned the Secure Hosting Alliance (SHA) Trust Seal, recognizing its commitment to security, transparency, and responsible infrastructure practices.

Founded in 2018, Convesio has grown from a managed WordPress host into an integrated platform that combines hosting, payments, and commerce automation. Designed for agencies, eCommerce brands, and growing businesses, Convesio enables customers to build, scale, and operate revenue-generating digital experiences on a single, secure foundation.

At its core, Convesio delivers a cloud-native, auto-scaling infrastructure that dynamically allocates resources, sustaining performance during peak demand while optimising efficiency during quieter periods. Infrastructure is only part of the story.

As commerce moves toward agent-driven transactions, the bar for infrastructure trust is rising. Verified credentials like the SHA Trust Seal give customers and their AI agents a basis for trusting where transactions are processed.

To earn the SHA Trust Seal, Convesio demonstrated adherence to four key pillars:

• Transparency: Clear, public-facing policies and agreements that define expectations for customers and partners
• Infrastructure Misuse Protocols: Documented response procedures with prioritized handling of verified abuse reports
• Network Resource Reliability: Proactive monitoring, recovery planning, and scalable capacity management
• Government Request Handling: Lawful, fair, and transparent processes for handling data requests

Security is foundational across every layer of Convesio’s platform. In addition to earning the SHA Trust Seal, Convesio supports HIPAA-compliant hosting environments for healthcare and regulated industries; and has achieved PCI DSS Level 1 Service Provider status, the highest standard for payment data security.

“As we expand into payments, AI-assisted commerce, and the agentic web, security isn’t a feature, it’s the foundation,” said Convesio CMO Daryl Griffin. “Earning the SHA Trust Seal reinforces our commitment to building infrastructure that businesses, and the AI agents acting on their behalf, can trust to run critical operations.”

For customers, the SHA Trust Seal signals that Convesio operates with a high standard of accountability, reliability, and ethical responsibility, critical factors for businesses managing sensitive data, high-value transactions, and increasingly autonomous buying agents.

“WP Cloud and Automattic exist to protect and expand the open web. That mission drives the programs we back and the partners we stand behind,” said Jesse Friedman, Head of WP Cloud at Automattic. “We sponsor the i2 Coalition’s Secure Hosting Alliance because they’re doing essential work, naming and elevating hosts who have a real commitment to secure, ethical hosting. The SHA’s confidence in our mission and our cloud infrastructure is what made our sponsorship possible in the first place, and it’s why WP Cloud partners receive SHA membership at no cost as a benefit of partnering with us. Convesio is exactly the kind of partner that program was built to recognize. They’re an ethical, innovative host who shows up for the open web every day, and they’ve earned this seal.”

Looking ahead, Convesio plans to collaborate more deeply with the Secure Hosting Alliance to help simplify secure infrastructure for modern businesses.

“Most companies don’t struggle because tools don’t exist, they struggle because secure systems are too complex to implement correctly,” Griffin added. “We’re focused on making secure, compliant commerce infrastructure accessible, so businesses can grow without compromising trust.”
