It isn't unusual for many users to use weak passwords since they're less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins which are not updated for a long time. In either of these instances, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take over the Internet site and following that to take control of other sites which are hosted in the very same account. To avoid such a scenario, we have added an advanced security option called JailHost. It restricts the access which 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 see any other content in your account, therefore the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, employing JailHost does not substitute the security measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will allow you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Website Hosting

If you host your sites inside a website hosting account from our company, you can protect them using the JailHost option with just a few mouse clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is available with all plans and can be enabled for every folder as the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have individual folders, so that files for different Internet sites never get mixed up as it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you may use scripts which require access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option could interfere with their correct functioning, but shielding all other folders is simple and easy. In case any protected Internet site gets hacked for whatever reason, we will be able to restore it without delay because we'll have multiple daily backup copies of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups through Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

JailHost comes with all of our semi-dedicated hosting solutions and you will be able to activate it with several clicks. It is not enabled by default as we don't want to prevent some scripts which need to gain access to multiple folders in your account from functioning properly. You'll be able to enable JailHost for all other Internet sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and this can be done quickly even when you do not have any previous experience. What allows us to offer JailHost is the way Hepsia maintains multiple domains - they all have separate folders that could be "locked". In comparison, 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 Internet site is hacked, the whole account is hacked, which is not the case with Hepsia. In case a site gets damaged despite your efforts, we will be able to recover it the way it was without delay because we'll have several daily backups of your account.
