Enjaulado de cuentas

Spanish to English Marketing Computers: Software Web hosting
From a text from Spain for translation to US English. Talking about a web hosting option and security in the provider's service. I imagine it is talking about keeping each user's full account within a "container" (?) to prevent any issues due to being in shared servers with other users' accounts... but what would be the marketing-style description of that for English speakers? In:

"Enjaulado de cuentas para aislar tu Hosting."

Account caging

Cf. "caged accounts" as mentioned by phil. I'm not keen on "jail/ed/ing" myself, although it is used.

Another excellent web hosting provider that has applied this account caging method with great success

CageFS / Account Cage

The translation of "Enjaulado de cuentas" in English is "CageFS" or, as aforementioned, "Account Cage."

It refers to a security feature that isolates users' accounts from each other on a shared server, preventing unauthorized access to files or data by other users. This feature is commonly used in web hosting services to enhance security and protect websites from hacking or malware attacks.

ring(-)fencing of accounts

The metaphor might be suitably changed, rather than figuratively 'caged', 'jailed' or, laughably, partitioned like a piece of land. .

More than a fuzzy match and certainly standard in the trade, esp. Transatlantically.
Example sentence:

Please may someone explain to me how to ring fence a domain if it is possible on my hosting package.
