It isn't unusual for a lot of users to use weak passwords simply because they're much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins which aren't updated for a long period of time. In either of these cases, it will not be difficult for a hacker to take over the Internet site and after that to take control of other websites that may be hosted within the very same account. To prevent this scenario, we have added an innovative security option named JailHost. It restricts the access which a script has just to its own folder, so if one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to see any other content part of your account, which means that the damage will be small. Of course, employing JailHost does not replace the security measures you need to take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it'll help you to restrict the damage to one site only.
JailHost in Hosting
You can take advantage of JailHost with every single hosting plan that we provide and protect your Internet sites against attacks fast and easy. Each domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel that is provided with our solutions has a separate folder and contrary to what can often happen with some other Control Panels, the site content is not mixed in just a single main folder, so keeping the websites separate will be easier. Enabling JailHost for any Internet site takes only a couple of clicks, so even when you do not have much experience, you won't need any specific skills to be able to keep your websites secure. The option is not active by default in case that you intend to use a script that needs access to a different folder inside your account. If you use JailHost, the rest of the websites that you have will be protected, but even a hacked one will not remain affected for long as we will have several daily backups for it at all times, so we could promptly restore it.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you have a semi-dedicated server account, you can activate JailHost with a few clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel because we've included this option in all semi-dedicated packages. It is not active by default as you may use an app that requires accessibility to other folders within the account and JailHost might cause problems, yet you can protect all other sites by separating them from each other. This will be quite easy as in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In contrast, a number of other Control Panels save the content of multiple websites in subfolders under a main domain, so only one hacked website there will mean that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, just one website can get damaged and even in such a circumstance, we can quickly recover it via the multiple daily backup copies which we will keep, which means that you can go ahead and update it afterwards so as to protect it from potential future attacks.
