It's not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords since they're less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these instances, it will not be very difficult for a hacker to take over the site and following that to take control of other websites which may be hosted within the very same account. To avoid this kind of a scenario, we've added an advanced level security option called JailHost. It limits the access that a script has solely to its own folder, so in case one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content within your account, thus the damage will be small. Needless to say, employing JailHost does not replace the safety measures you should take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will enable you to restrict the damage to one site only.
JailHost in Shared Web Hosting
We have included JailHost for all shared web hosting plans, so you'll be able to protect each of your Internet sites with only a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is not enabled by default in order to avoid disturbing any websites where you may want visitors or administrators to access content from other folders in your account, but activating it for all your other sites is really effortless. Unlike many other Control Panels where most of the domains have their files in the same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, which makes the control and the protection of many different Internet sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of an Internet site getting hacked, your other websites will be shielded and we always have multiple daily backups for the affected one, so that we'll be able to bring it back to its initial state in a matter of minutes.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server plans come with JailHost included by default. This option is not activated automatically when you add a domain as you may wish to use some script that accesses several folders in the account, but you can activate it easily from your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other Internet sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple websites because it keeps them in separate folders and doesn't keep the files for several Internet sites in the very same folder as it often happens with various other Control Panels. This allows us to offer JailHost as all of the folders can be isolated from each other. If any one of your websites gets hacked, we will promptly restore it thanks to the several daily backup copies that we will keep and meanwhile your attacker won't be able to do further damage since the access to your other Internet sites will be blocked.
