I looked deeper into their site and they seem to run 4 virtual servers per box, which at least mitigates some of the security issues. I'd still want RDS turned off, but I assume that could be arranged since the server is separate from the others.

If they're using CF Pro, they're probably not running multiple copies on each machine, since you can't really do that with CF Pro. If it's within a virtual server, CF Pro is a sensible choice, since you essentially have your own dedicated server and don't have to worry about anyone else doing anything within that server.
