It's not unusual for a lot of users to use weak passwords simply because they are less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which aren't updated for a long time. In either of these situations, it won't be a challenge for a hacker to take control of the website and following that to take control of other websites that may be hosted in the same account. To avoid such a scenario, we've added an innovative security option known as JailHost. It restricts the access which a script has exclusively 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, so the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, employing JailHost won't replace the security measures you should 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 Shared Hosting

In case you host your websites within a shared hosting account from our firm, you will be able to protect them using the JailHost feature with just a few mouse clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. This option is accessible with all plans and can be enabled for any folder as the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so files for different Internet sites don't get mixed up as it frequently happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you may use scripts that need access to folders outside the primary website folder and this option can interfere with their proper operation, but securing all of the other folders is very simple. If a protected site gets hacked for some reason, we can recover it easily as we will have multiple daily backup copies of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups from Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

All our semi-dedicated hosting plans come with JailHost provided by default. This feature is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name because you may wish to use a script that accesses several folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it without difficulty through your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple sites since it keeps them in separate folders and doesn't keep the files for several websites in the same folder as it often happens with various other Control Panels. This enables us to offer you JailHost as all folders can be separated from each other. If any of your sites gets hacked, we will promptly restore it thanks to the several daily backup copies which we'll keep and meanwhile the attacker will not be able to do further damage as the access to your other websites will be stopped.
