It's not unusual for a lot of users to use weak passwords considering that they are easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these situations, it will not be a challenge for a hacker to take control of the Internet site and from there on to take control of other sites that are hosted within the very same account. In order to avoid such a scenario, we've added an innovative security option named JailHost. It restricts the access that a script has just to its own folder, so in case one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to view any other content inside your account, which means that the damage will be small. Needless to say, using JailHost will not replace the security measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will allow you to limit any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Website Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the shared website hosting plans that we offer and you can enable it with only a mouse click in your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content in the primary domain folder, each and every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, therefore using JailHost can make a big difference. You will be able to pick which websites will use the option and will be locked based on your content because you could have some site where you prefer to allow users or administrators to access other folders inside your hosting account. Nevertheless, this option will add one more level of security to your websites in addition to the firewalls that we use and even if any of your sites is hacked, you'll be able to restore it quick and easy using any of the several daily backup copies of your entire account that we will generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

All our semi-dedicated server solutions come with JailHost included by default. The option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name because you may wish to use some script which accesses different folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it effortlessly via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for those who have multiple sites as it keeps them in separate folders and doesn't keep the files for several sites in the same folder like it often happens with alternative Control Panels. This allows us to offer JailHost as all of the folders can be isolated from each other. If any one of your sites gets hacked, we'll be able to almost instantly restore it because of the multiple 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 Internet sites will be blocked.
