I would say no. Not even a port scan.
I would expect a hosting company to hire their own pentesters and
security professionals to protect their webservers.
If they dont then I wouldnt trust my customer's sensitive data on their servers.

If I had an ebusiness with personal customer data on a server then I
would want to ensure security measures are in place and that a good
web app pen test has been completed. This may mean that I host my own
server in my own business network and not put the trust in some
hosting company.

Albert
