Can I share the report with my hosting provider?

Yes, and you should. The audit covers controls that span the app layer (your responsibility) and the infrastructure layer (your hosting provider’s). The split:

Your hosting handles (typically):

  • q6, TLS version + cipher suites on the load balancer.
  • q7, HSTS header injection at nginx / Cloudflare.
  • q8, WAF configuration (Cloudflare, AWS WAF, Sucuri).
  • q11, Encrypted backups + off-site replication.
  • q19, PHP version + EOL status.
  • q20, OS / kernel patching cadence.
  • q23, Server-log aggregation.

You handle (typically):

  • q1-q5, All authentication controls (Magento admin).
  • q9, q10, Security headers + CSP at the Magento layer.
  • q12-q15, PCI scope, tokenization, GDPR endpoints.
  • q16-q18, Magento + extension patching.
  • q21, FIM on app/vendor/pub.
  • q22, q24, q25, security.txt, IR plan, tabletop.

I recommend forwarding the report to your hosting provider with a note: “Here’s our self-audit. Can you confirm the items I’ve marked as hosting-side are accurate, and quote remediation for any that scored ‘No’?” Good hosts respond with a written confirmation + timeline. If they push back or go silent, that’s a hosting-quality signal.
