It's not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords because they are much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these instances, it will not be a challenge for a hacker to take control of the Internet site and following that to take control of other sites that may be hosted within the very same account. To prevent such a scenario, we have added an advanced security option named JailHost. It restricts the access which a script has solely to its own folder, so if one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to see any other content within your account, which means that the damage will be minimal. Of course, using JailHost can't substitute the safety measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it'll allow you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting

You can take full advantage of JailHost with each and every cloud hosting plan that we offer and protect your Internet sites against attacks fast and easy. Each domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our packages has a separate folder and contrary to what can often happen with many other Control Panels, the site content is not mixed up within just a single main folder, so keeping your websites separate will be far easier. Allowing JailHost for any site takes just a few clicks, so even when you do not have a lot of experience, you will not need any special skills to maintain your websites protected. The option isn't active by default in case that you'd like to use some script which needs accessibility to another folder inside your account. In case you use JailHost, the rest of the websites that you have will be secured, but even a hacked one will not remain damaged for long as we'll have a couple of daily backup copies for it all of the time, so we could promptly recover it.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to activate JailHost with a few clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel as we've included this option in all semi-dedicated packages. It isn't active by default as you might use an app which requires access to other folders within the account and JailHost could cause problems, but you could protect all other Internet sites by separating them from one another. It is quite easy because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In contrast, a number of other Control Panels store the content of multiple Internet sites in subfolders under a main domain, so one hacked website there means that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one site could possibly get damaged and even in such a circumstance, we can quickly restore it thanks to the multiple daily backups which we will keep, meaning that you can go ahead and update it afterwards so as to protect it from potential future intrusions.
