It is not unusual for many users to use weak passwords because they're easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that are not updated for a long time. In either of these instances, it won't be difficult for a hacker to take control of the site and following that to take control of other websites that may be hosted in the very same account. In order to avoid such a scenario, we have added an excellent security option known as JailHost. It limits the access which a script has just to its own folder, so if one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to see any other content inside your account, thus the damage will be minimal. Of course, using JailHost will not replace the safety measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will enable you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Web Hosting

JailHost is available by default with all the web hosting packages that we provide and you can turn it on with only a single click from your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content within the main domain folder, every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, which means that using JailHost shall make a big difference. You'll be able to pick which sites will use this feature and will be locked in accordance with your content since you may have some site where you want to allow users or admins to access other folders in your web hosting account. Yet, this feature will add an additional level of security to your sites along with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your sites is hacked, you could restore it fast and easy using any one of the several daily backup copies of your entire account that we will generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

JailHost comes with all our semi-dedicated server packages and you could activate it with several clicks. It is not turned on by default since we don't want to prevent some scripts that may need to access multiple folders in your account from working properly. You will be able to enable JailHost for all other sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and this can be done very easily even if you don't have any previous experience. What allows us to offer JailHost is the way Hepsia handles multiple domains - they all have separate folders that could be "locked". In contrast, other widespread Control Panels feature add-on domains and the content of the latter is stored in the main domain folder, so in case a single website is hacked, the entire account is hacked, that isn't the case with Hepsia. In the event that an Internet site gets damaged despite your efforts, we'll be able to recover it the way it was without delay since we will keep a few daily backups of the entire account.
