JailHost
Discover how you can use the "JailHost" option in your control panel and how it can protect all your websites.
In case you host multiple Internet sites inside the very same account and one of them is hacked, it is more than likely that all of them will be hacked after that. There are various reasons why this could happen, the two most common are: using very weak passwords or using out-of-date scripts with widely known vulnerabilities. This way, one single compromised Internet site can do lots of damage to all your Internet sites, since gaining access to a single script often allows hackers to access the web hosting account. This is the reason why we have introduced a top-notch security option called JailHost. Once enabled, this option will literally lock a website inside its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the other websites in the account will be hidden. Thus they will be shielded from further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't suggest that you should not keep your Internet sites up-to-date, but it'll greatly minimize the damage.

JailHost in Shared Website Hosting
In case you host your Internet sites inside a
shared website hosting account from our company, you could protect them by using the JailHost feature with just a few mouse clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is available with all packages and can be enabled for each folder since the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so that files for various Internet sites do not get mixed up like it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you might use scripts which require access to folders outside the main website folder and this option can interfere with their correct operation, but securing all other folders is very easy. In case any secured site gets hacked for some reason, we will be able to recover it quickly because we'll have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups from Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
semi-dedicated hosting plans come with JailHost provided by default. This feature is not activated automatically when you add a domain since you may need to use a certain script that accesses different folders in the account, but you can activate it without difficulty from your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other Internet sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use if you have multiple websites because it keeps them in separate folders and does not keep the files for several websites in the same folder as it often happens with various other Control Panels. This allows us to offer you JailHost as all of the folders can be isolated from each other. If any of your Internet sites gets hacked, we'll be able to promptly restore it thanks to the multiple daily backup copies which we will keep and in the mean time the attacker will not be able to do further damage because the access to your other sites will be cut off.
