It is not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords because they're less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which aren't updated for a long time. In either of these instances, it won't be hard for a hacker to take control of the website and from there on to take control of other websites that are hosted in the same account. In order to avoid such a scenario, we've added an advanced security option known as JailHost. It restricts the access which a script has just to its own folder, so in the event that one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to access any other content inside your account, which means that the damage will be minimal. Of course, using JailHost doesn't substitute the security measures you should take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll help you to restrict the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Web Hosting

If you host your sites in a web hosting account from our company, you will be able to protect them using the JailHost option with just a couple of mouse clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is provided with all packages and can be activated for every folder as the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so that files for many different sites don't get mixed up like it quite often happens with other Control Panels. We have not activated JailHost by default as you might use scripts which need access to folders outside the main website folder and this option could interfere with their proper functioning, but securing all the other folders is simple and easy. If a secured Internet site gets hacked for whatever reason, we will be able to restore it very quickly as we'll have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups through Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our semi-dedicated hosting packages come with JailHost provided by default. This option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name as you may need to use a specific script that accesses several folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it easily via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other sites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple sites as it keeps them in individual folders and doesn't keep the files for several websites in the same folder as it often happens with alternative Control Panels. This enables us to offer JailHost as all folders can be separated from one another. In case that any one of your websites is hacked, we'll be able to quickly restore it thanks to the several daily backup copies that we will keep and in the mean time your attacker will not be able to do further damage because the access to your other websites will be cut off.
