It is not uncommon for lots of users to use weak passwords simply because they're less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that are not updated for a long time. In either of these instances, it won't be hard for a hacker to take over the site and after that to take control of other websites which are hosted in the same account. In order to avoid this scenario, we have added an advanced level security option called JailHost. It limits the access that a script has solely 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 view any other content part of your account, which means that the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, using JailHost does not replace the safety measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it will enable you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the cloud hosting plans that we provide and you can activate it with just a mouse click inside your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains keep their content within the main domain folder, every single domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, which means that using JailHost can make a significant difference. You can select which sites will use the feature and will be locked based on your content because you may have some site where you prefer to allow users or administrators to be able to access other folders in your Internet hosting account. Yet, this option will add an extra level of security to your Internet sites together with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your Internet sites gets hacked, you will be able to restore it quick and easy using any one of the multiple daily backups of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

JailHost is provided with all of our semi-dedicated hosting solutions, so if you host several sites, you'll be able to isolate them from one another and keep them safe. The option must be activated for each Internet site and is not active by default, to avoid interference with scripts which need access to multiple folders within the account. Activating it for all other domains will take no more than a couple of clicks inside the Hepsia internet hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place different Internet sites under the primary domain folder. Instead, each and every domain or subdomain has its very own folder, that makes it much easier to maintain and secure your Internet sites. In case that a website inside your account gets hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the damaged website in no time as we will have multiple backups of your whole content.
