It's not unusual for many users to use weak passwords since they're less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins which aren't updated for a long period of time. In either of these examples, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take over the website and from there on to take control of other Internet sites that are hosted within the same account. To avoid this scenario, we've added an efficient security option named JailHost. It limits the access that a script has exclusively to its own folder, so in case one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to access any other content inside your account, which means that the damage will be minimal. Of course, employing JailHost doesn't substitute the safety measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it'll enable you to restrict any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the hosting plans that we offer and you could enable it with only a mouse click from your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content within the main domain folder, every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, which means that using JailHost will make a significant difference. You will be able to pick which sites will use the feature and will be locked in accordance with your content since you may have some website where you want to allow users or admins to be able to access other folders inside your Internet hosting account. Nevertheless, the option will add a further level of security to your Internet sites in addition to the firewalls which we use and even if any of your sites gets hacked, you'll be able to recover it really easy using any one of the several daily backups of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

JailHost is provided with all our semi-dedicated server plans, so in case you host a couple of Internet sites, you'll be able to separate them from one another to keep them safe. This feature should be activated for every single site and is not enabled by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts which need access to multiple folders within the account. Enabling it for all other domains will take no more than several mouse clicks inside the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Unlike many other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place several Internet sites under the main domain folder. Instead, each and every domain or subdomain has its very own folder, that makes it easier to manage and shield all your websites. In case that a site in your account is hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the damaged website very quickly as we will have multiple backups of your content.
