It isn't uncommon for a lot of users to use weak passwords since they're much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these situations, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take control of the site and after that to take control of other Internet sites that are hosted within the very same account. In order to prevent this scenario, we have added an excellent security option known as JailHost. It limits the access that a script has solely to its own folder, so in case one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to view any other content inside your account, which means that the damage will be small. Needless to say, using JailHost does not substitute the safety measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it'll allow you to restrict any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the cloud hosting plans that we offer and you can enable it with just a single click in your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content inside the main domain folder, every single domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, therefore using JailHost can make a big difference. You'll be able to pick which sites will use this option and will be locked based on your content because you could have some Internet site where you would like to allow users or admins to access other folders in your web hosting account. Nonetheless, the option will add an extra level of security to your sites together with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your Internet sites is hacked, you could restore it easy and fast using any of the multiple daily backup copies of your entire account which we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our semi-dedicated hosting packages come with JailHost provided by default. This option is not activated automatically when you add a domain because you may wish to use a script which accesses multiple folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it easily through your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other websites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for those who have multiple Internet sites as it keeps them in individual folders and does not keep the files for several Internet sites in the same folder as it often happens with various other Control Panels. This enables us to offer JailHost as all the folders can be separated from one another. If any of your sites gets hacked, we'll quickly restore it using the several daily backup copies that we'll keep and meanwhile the attacker will not be able to do further damage because the access to your other Internet sites will be stopped.
