It isn't unusual for a lot of users to use weak passwords considering that they are easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that aren't updated for a long time. In either of these situations, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take control of the site and from that point on to take control of other sites which are hosted in the very same account. To avoid this scenario, we've added an advanced level security option known as JailHost. It restricts the access which a script has exclusively 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 see any other content part of your account, so the damage will be small. Of course, using JailHost can't substitute the safety measures you should take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it will allow you to restrict any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the shared hosting packages that we offer and you can turn it on with just a single click inside your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content in the primary domain folder, each and every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, so using JailHost will make a significant difference. You will be able to pick which Internet sites will use the feature and will be locked based on your content as you may have some website where you would like to allow users or admins to be able to access other folders inside your Internet hosting account. Nonetheless, the option will add an extra level of security to your Internet sites along with the firewalls that we use and even if any of your websites gets hacked, you will be able to restore it fast and easy using any one of the multiple daily backups of your entire account that we will generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server account, you'll be able to activate JailHost with a couple of clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel because we have included this option in all of our semi-dedicated packages. It is not activated by default for the reason that you might use an app that needs access to other folders inside the account and JailHost may cause problems, yet you'll be able to secure all other Internet sites by isolating them from one another. It is quite easy because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have individual folders. In comparison, numerous other Control Panels store the content of multiple Internet sites in subfolders under a primary domain, so one single hacked site there will mean that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, just one Internet site can get damaged and even if this happens, we can quickly bring it back via the multiple daily backups that we will keep, so you can go ahead and update it after that so as to protect it from potential intrusions.
