It isn't uncommon for many users to use weak passwords simply because they are easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which aren't updated for a long period of time. In either of these examples, it won't be a challenge for a hacker to take control of the site and following that to take control of other websites that may be hosted in the same account. In order to prevent this scenario, we have added an efficient security option known as JailHost. It restricts the access that a script has just to its own folder, so if one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to access any other content inside your account, which means that the damage will be small. Of course, using JailHost can't substitute the safety measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it'll enable you to restrict the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Cloud Web Hosting

JailHost is available as standard with all the cloud web hosting packages that we provide and you can activate it with just a single click inside your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains keep their content in the main domain folder, each domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, therefore using JailHost can make a major difference. You will be able to choose which websites will use this feature and will be locked in accordance with your content since you could have some Internet site where you would like to allow users or admins to be able to access other folders in your web hosting account. Nevertheless, this option will add an extra level of security to your Internet sites together with the firewalls that we use and even if any of your websites is hacked, you'll be able to recover it fast and easy using any one of the several daily backup copies of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

JailHost comes with all of our semi-dedicated server solutions and you can activate it with a couple of clicks. It is not turned on by default because we don't want to prevent some scripts which require to gain access to multiple folders in your account from functioning properly. You will be able to enable JailHost for all other Internet sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and this can be done effortlessly even if you lack previous experience. What allows us to offer JailHost is the way in which Hepsia manages multiple domains - they all have separate folders which can be "locked". In contrast, other widespread Control Panels feature add-on domains and their content is stored in the main domain folder, so when a single website is hacked, the whole account is hacked, which isn't the case with Hepsia. If a site is damaged despite your efforts, we shall be able to recover it the way it was very quickly because we will keep a few daily backups of your account.
