It is not uncommon for lots of users to use weak passwords since they are much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these situations, it will not be hard for a hacker to take control of the website and after that to take control of other websites that are hosted within the same account. To avoid this scenario, we've added an efficient security option called JailHost. It limits the access that a script has only to its own folder, so in the event that one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to see any other content within your account, thus the damage will be small. Needless to say, employing JailHost will not replace the safety measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll enable you to restrict the damage to one site only.
JailHost in Shared Hosting
In case you host your Internet sites in a shared hosting account from our company, you'll be able to protect them using the JailHost option with just a couple of mouse clicks within your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is available with all packages and can be activated for each folder since the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so that files for many different Internet sites don't get mixed up as it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We have not activated JailHost by default because you might use scripts that need access to folders outside the primary website folder and this option could interfere with their correct functioning, but shielding all of the other folders is simple and easy. If any secured website gets hacked for some reason, we can restore it promptly since we will have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to search the available backups using Hepsia.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server solutions come with JailHost integrated by default. This feature is not activated automatically when you add a domain name because you may need to use a certain script that accesses multiple folders in the account, but you will be able to activate it without any difficulty through your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other websites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple Internet sites because it keeps them in individual folders and does not keep the files for several Internet sites in the same folder as it often happens with other Control Panels. This allows us to offer you JailHost as all the folders can be separated from one another. In case that any one of your websites gets hacked, we will be able to quickly restore it because of the several daily backup copies which we will keep and in the mean time the attacker will not be able to do further damage as the access to your other sites will be stopped.
