Question Internal Sabotage by personnel of Hosting Provider

Hello,

I am looking around for a Hosting Provider that can manage my opinion-website built on Joomla version 5 platform with Kunena Forum v.6.3.5 extension built-in.
My experience, especially by the repressive attitude in the Netherlands, is that there is a risk of 'internal sabotage' by hosting personnel (admins) with a different opinion. Do you recognise this? Have you experienced any opposition or strange circumstances?
So, I have become cautious and have some questions:
How can I detect technical sabotage in Joomla v.5 or in Kunena Forum v.6.3.5?
How can I prevent technical sabotage?
Which (international) Hosting Provider can you propose that is politically, religiously and culturally neutral?

Friendly regards,
Sthop

This question has nothing to do with Kunena. It also seems strange to me that hosting staff would take the time to sabotage a site.

Hello Pinkeltje,
What the questions have to do with Kunena is:
Does Kunena environment have access for a secret admin (for example, via database) by an aggrieved employee?
My questions are not about the Hosting Provider as an organisation, but by any employee with an opposing view who wants to undermine my site covertly.
Which (international) Hosting Provider may you propose that is politically, religiously and culturally neutral?
Friendly regards,
Sthop

Have you experienced this or is this a hypothetical question?

Kunena is build upon Joomla and uses it's user accounts and access rights implementation. Joomla is build upon a web server and a database (likely mysql).

That said: everybody with access to the files on the web server can change whatever they like and access the database to change / delete topics / replies.

This goes for all extensions / plugins / etc.

So if your 'aggrieved' employee can get his hands on server / ftp access then he will also be able to change database entries (even without you knowing it).

I do it myself 'all' the time: get a support request from a customer and reply to this question only to find out that I was logged in with my admin account and not with my user account. I then go into the database and swap out the admin user id with my own user id in the correct tables / messages, et voila: the answer is now made by the correct user account.

Ruud,
Thank you for your reply.
