It is not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords considering that they are less difficult 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 won't be a challenge for a hacker to take over the Internet site and after that to take control of other websites that are hosted in the same account. In order to prevent this scenario, we've added an efficient security option known as JailHost. It limits the access that a script has solely to its own folder, so in case one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content within your account, which means that the damage will be minimal. Of course, employing JailHost will not substitute the security measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it'll allow you to limit any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

We’ve included JailHost for all shared hosting packages, so you could protect any of your sites with just a few clicks inside the Hepsia Control Panel. The option isn't enabled by default to prevent disturbing any Internet sites where you may need visitors or administrators to be able to access content from other folders in your account, but activating it for all your other Internet sites is very easy. Unlike many other Control Panels where many domains have their files in the very same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their very own folders, making the management and the protection of multiple sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of a website getting hacked, the rest of your Internet sites will be protected and we'll have a couple of daily backups for the infected one, so that we can recover it to its original state within minutes.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

JailHost is available with all our semi-dedicated server plans, so in case you host multiple Internet sites, you will be able to separate them from each other in order to keep them safe. This feature should be activated for each and every website and is not active by default, to avoid interference with scripts that need access to multiple folders inside the account. Activating it for all other domains will take no more than several mouse clicks within the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Unlike many other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place several websites under the primary domain folder. Instead, every single domain or subdomain has its own folder, which makes it much simpler to control and protect your sites. In case that an Internet site inside your account is hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the affected website in no time as we will have multiple backup copies of your content.
