It is not unusual for a lot of users to use weak passwords simply because they are much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that are not updated for a long time. In either of these cases, it won't be very difficult for a hacker to take over the website and from that point on to take control of other websites which may be hosted in the very same account. In order to prevent this scenario, we have added an advanced level security option known as JailHost. It limits the access which a script has exclusively to its own folder, so in case one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to see any other content in your account, therefore the damage will be small. Needless to say, 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'll allow you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

We’ve included JailHost for all shared hosting solutions, so you will be able to protect your sites with only a couple of clicks in the Hepsia Control Panel. The option is not enabled by default to avoid interfering with any websites where you may want visitors or administrators to be able to access content from other folders inside your account, but activating it for all your other Internet sites is really effortless. Unlike various other Control Panels where the vast majority of domains have their files in the same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their own folders, which makes the management and the protection of multiple sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of an Internet site getting hacked, the rest of your Internet sites will be protected and we will have multiple daily backups for the affected one, which means that we can bring it back to its original state in a couple of minutes.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

JailHost is provided with all our semi-dedicated hosting packages, so in case you host a couple of sites, you will be able to isolate them from one another and keep them safe. This feature must be activated for every single website and is not active by default, to avoid interference with scripts that 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 web hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia doesn't place multiple Internet sites under the primary domain folder. Instead, each domain or subdomain has its very own folder, that makes it much easier to maintain and shield your sites. In case that a website in your account gets hacked, not only will your other websites remain untouched, but we will also be able to restore the damaged Internet site in a short time as we will have multiple backup copies of your whole content.
