It is not uncommon for lots of users to use weak passwords simply because they are less difficult 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 won't be very difficult for a hacker to take control of the Internet site and after that to take control of other Internet sites that may be hosted in the very same account. To avoid this kind of a scenario, we have added an advanced level security option called JailHost. It restricts the access which a script has exclusively to its own folder, so if one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content inside your account, thus the damage will be small. Of course, using JailHost will not replace the safety measures you should take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll help you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the cloud hosting packages that we provide and you could activate it with only a single mouse click in your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains keep their content within the main domain folder, each domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, thus using JailHost shall make a significant difference. You'll be able to select which Internet sites will use this feature and will be locked based on your content as you may have some website where you would like to allow users or administrators to be able to access other folders in your website hosting account. Nonetheless, this option will add a further level of security to your websites together with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your Internet sites gets hacked, you could restore it easy and fast using any one of the multiple daily backups of your entire account which we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our semi-dedicated server plans come with JailHost integrated by default. This feature is not activated automatically when you add a domain name since you may wish to use a certain script which accesses different folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it effortlessly via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other websites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple sites because it keeps them in separate folders and doesn't keep the files for several websites in the very same folder like it often happens with other Control Panels. This enables us to offer JailHost as all of the folders can be separated from each other. In case that any one of your Internet sites gets hacked, we will quickly restore it because of the several daily backup copies that we'll keep and meanwhile your attacker will not be able to do further damage because the access to your other sites will be blocked.
