It isn't uncommon for a lot of users to use weak passwords simply because they're easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these instances, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take control of the website and from there on to take control of other Internet sites which are hosted in the very same account. To prevent this scenario, we've added an efficient security option called JailHost. It limits the access that a script has solely to its own folder, so if one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to access any other content inside your account, so the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, employing JailHost can't replace the security measures you need to take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it will enable you to restrict the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Web Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the web hosting packages that we offer and you could turn it on with just a mouse click inside your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content inside the main domain folder, every single domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, so using JailHost shall make a significant difference. You can pick which websites will use this feature and will be locked in accordance with your content since you could have some site where you would like to allow users or admins to access other folders inside your website hosting account. Nevertheless, this option will add a further level of security to your websites in addition to the firewalls that we use and even if any of your websites gets hacked, you'll be able to restore it fast and easy using any of the several daily backup copies of your entire account that we will generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

JailHost is available with all of our semi-dedicated hosting packages, so if you host multiple sites, you will be able to isolate them from one another and keep them safe. This feature has to be activated for each site and is not enabled by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts which require access to multiple folders inside the account. Enabling it for all other websites will take no more than a couple of mouse clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Unlike many other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place multiple Internet sites under the main domain folder. Instead, each domain or subdomain has its own folder, that makes it much simpler to control and shield all of your sites. In case that an Internet site inside your account gets hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the affected website before you know it because we will have multiple backups of your entire content.
