It isn't unusual for lots of users to use weak passwords since they're easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that are not updated for a long time. In either of these examples, it will not be a challenge for a hacker to take over the Internet site and after that to take control of other Internet sites which are hosted in the same account. In order to avoid this kind of a scenario, we have added an advanced security option named JailHost. It limits the access which a script has exclusively to its own folder, so if one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to view any other content inside your account, which means that the damage will be small. Needless to say, employing JailHost does not replace the security measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it'll enable you to limit any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

JailHost is available as standard with all the shared hosting plans that we offer and you can enable it with only a mouse click from your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains keep their content within the main domain folder, each and every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, which means that using JailHost can make a significant difference. You can choose which websites will use this feature and will be locked based on your content since you could have some site where you want to allow users or administrators to be able to access other folders inside your web hosting account. Nevertheless, 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 Internet sites is hacked, you'll be able to restore it really easy using any one of the several daily backups of your entire account which we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you have a semi-dedicated hosting account, you will be able to activate JailHost with a few clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel because we've included this option in all semi-dedicated plans. It is not active by default as you may use an app that requires accessibility to other folders within the account and JailHost could cause problems, however you'll be able to protect all other Internet sites by separating them from one another. This will be very easy because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In contrast, a number of other Control Panels save the content of multiple sites in subfolders under a primary domain, so one single hacked Internet site there means that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one website could possibly get damaged and even in such a circumstance, we will quickly recover it thanks to the multiple daily backups that we will keep, which means that you can go ahead and update it after that in order to protect it from future attacks.
