It is not uncommon for lots of users to use weak passwords simply because 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 cases, it won't be difficult for a hacker to take control of the site and from there on to take control of other Internet sites that may be hosted in the very same account. In order to prevent this scenario, we've added an innovative security option called JailHost. It restricts the access which 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 will not be able to view any other content within your account, which means that the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, using JailHost does not replace the safety measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll allow you to limit any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

You can take full advantage of JailHost with every single shared hosting plan that we offer and protect your Internet sites against attacks fast and easy. Each domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel that is provided with our packages has a separate folder and in contrast to what can often happen with some other Control Panels, the website content isn't mixed up within just a single main folder, so keeping the sites separate will be quite easy. Allowing JailHost for any website takes just a couple of clicks, so even if you do not have a lot of experience, you won't need any specific skills to maintain your Internet sites risk-free. The option isn't active by default in case that you wish to use some script that requires accessibility to another folder inside your account. If you use JailHost, the remaining sites that you have will be protected, but even a hacked one won't remain affected for long since we'll have a couple of daily backups for it all the time, so that we can easily recover it.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

JailHost is provided with all of our semi-dedicated server solutions, so in case you host multiple sites, you'll be able to separate them from each other to keep them safe. This option must be activated for each and every website and is not turned on by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts which need access to multiple folders inside the account. Enabling it for all other domains will take no more than several mouse clicks in the Hepsia internet hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place different Internet sites under the main domain folder. Instead, each and every domain or subdomain has its very own folder, that makes it much simpler to take care of and secure all of your Internet sites. In case that a website inside your account is hacked, not only will your other websites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to restore the damaged Internet site very quickly because we will have multiple backups of your whole content.
