-What SuPHP allows is for the directory to remain owned by user:usergroup and tight 0750 permissions (or even 0700). Furthermore, files create through PHP (or uploaded through it) will be owned by the effective user instead of nobody as they otherwise would be. This allows users to manage/delete/rename/etc. these files themselves as a normal cPanel-level user as opposed to requiring root access.+What SuPHP allows is for the directory to remain owned by user:usergroup and tight 0750 permissions (or even 0700).
