CloudLinux certifies AdminBolt: CloudLinux 9 conversion and Imunify360 from control panel

CloudLinux has added AdminBolt to the list of control panels officially supported for both CloudLinux OS and Imunify360. The company announced this on its blog on 22 October 2026. For those managing shared servers with AdminBolt, this means being able to convert to CloudLinux 9 and activate Imunify360 without third-party integrations, with direct technical support between CloudLinux and the AdminBolt team.

What changes in practice

AdminBolt enters CloudLinux and Imunify360's documentation of supported control panels, and CloudLinux provides technical support to the AdminBolt team, as it does for every supported panel. Conversion starts from AlmaLinux 9 or Rocky Linux 9 servers and uses CloudLinux's official installer, without an intermediate compatibility layer: the main components are LVE for CPU, memory, I/O and process limits per account, CageFS for isolating each account's filesystem, and PHP Selector with CloudLinux's alt-php builds for versions down to PHP 5.2.

Imunify360 does not require CloudLinux: it runs on any AdminBolt server based on AlmaLinux 9 or Rocky Linux 9 and installs from the Modules menu with an activation key. The control panel adds two views, one for the administrator and one for each account holder, with WAF at web server level, malware scanning with automatic cleanup, brute-force protection on website, SSH, FTP and mail, IP reputation and kernel patching without reboot via KernelCare.

Those wanting to convert an existing server should remember that the integration uses CloudLinux's official and documented installer, without an intermediate compatibility layer, and new CloudLinux features arrive on AdminBolt servers via the same installer. Conversion is one-way and requires a reboot: a snapshot should first be taken with your provider and a low-traffic time slot chosen.

How much does AdminBolt cost compared to already-supported panels

AdminBolt's official price list shows flat rates per server, with no per-account costs: VPS/Cloud $20/month, Bare Metal $45/month, Standalone $7/month, with $20 per month covering a VM regardless of the number of active hosting accounts.

Control panel	Licensing model	Indicative cost
AdminBolt	Flat per server	$20/month VPS, $45/month Bare Metal
cPanel Premier	Per account, overage beyond 100	$69.99/month + $0.49/account beyond 100
Plesk Web Host	Per server, edition-based	$62.99/month
DirectAdmin Standard	Flat, unlimited accounts	$29/month

With this addition, AdminBolt joins cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, CyberPanel, InterWorx and Webuzo in the list of control panels covered by CloudLinux and Imunify360's control-panel-agnostic approach, which according to the company protects over 65 million domains worldwide. Those already using AdminBolt will find conversion and installation guides in the control panel's Modules menu, with licences or trials available directly from CloudLinux and Imunify360.
