It isn't unusual for lots of users to use weak passwords considering that they are less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins which are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these examples, it will not be a challenge for a hacker to take control of the site and from that point on to take control of other websites which are hosted within the very same account. In order to avoid this kind of a scenario, we have added an advanced level security option called JailHost. It restricts the access that a script has just to its own folder, so in case one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content within your account, thus the damage will be small. Of course, employing JailHost does not replace the safety measures you need to take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll enable you to limit any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting

In case you host your websites within a cloud hosting account from our firm, you can protect them using the JailHost option with just a few mouse clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is accessible with all plans and can be activated for every folder as the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so that files for different sites never get mixed up like it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you may use scripts which require access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option may interfere with their proper operation, but securing all of the other folders is very simple. In case any secured website gets hacked for some reason, we'll be able to recover it promptly since we will have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to view the available backups in Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

JailHost comes with all our semi-dedicated hosting solutions and you'll be able to activate it with several clicks. It is not turned on by default because we do not want to prevent some scripts that may need to gain access to multiple folders in your account from functioning properly. You could activate JailHost for all other Internet sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and you can do this effortlessly even when you have no previous experience. What enables us to offer JailHost is the way Hepsia takes care of multiple domains - they all have individual folders that could be "locked". In contrast, other widespread Control Panels have add-on domains and the content of the latter is stored in the main domain folder, so when a single site is hacked, the entire account is hacked, that isn't the case with Hepsia. In the event that an Internet site is damaged despite your efforts, we'll be able to recover it the way it was in no time as we'll have several daily backup copies of the whole account.
