It is not uncommon for lots of users to use weak passwords since they are easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that aren't updated for a long period of time. In either of these situations, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take over the Internet site and from that point on to take control of other sites that are hosted within the very same account. To prevent such a scenario, we have added an advanced level security option known as JailHost. It limits the access that a script has solely to its own folder, so if one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content within your account, so the damage will be minimal. Of course, employing JailHost does not replace the safety measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will allow you to restrict the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Website Hosting

You can take full advantage of JailHost with each and every shared website hosting plan that we offer and protect your websites against attacks quick and easy. Every single domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel that is provided with our plans has a different folder and contrary to what can often happen with many other Control Panels, the site content isn't mixed in a single main folder, so keeping the Internet sites separate is easier. Enabling JailHost for any site takes just a couple of clicks, so even when you do not have much experience, you won't need any special skills to be able to maintain your sites secure. The option isn't active by default in case that you intend to use some script that requires accessibility to another folder inside your account. If you use JailHost, the rest of the websites that you have will be secured, but even a hacked one will not remain damaged for too long since we'll have several daily backup copies for it at all times, so we can quickly restore it.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

JailHost is available with all our semi-dedicated server packages, so if you host multiple sites, you'll be able to isolate them from one another in order to keep them safe. This feature must be activated for every single Internet site and is not active by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts which require access to multiple folders within the account. Enabling it for all other websites will take no more than several clicks in the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Unlike many other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place different sites under the primary domain folder. Instead, every domain or subdomain has its own folder, which makes it much easier to control and shield all of your websites. In case that an Internet site within your account gets hacked, not only will your other Internet sites remain untouched, but we can also restore the damaged site in a short time since we will have multiple backups of your entire content.
