It's not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords considering that they are less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these examples, it will not be a challenge for a hacker to take over the Internet site and from there on to take control of other Internet sites that are hosted in the very same account. In order to avoid this kind of a scenario, we have added an excellent security option called JailHost. It restricts the access that a script has solely to its own folder, so if one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content in your account, therefore the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, employing JailHost doesn't substitute the safety 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 any damage to one site only.
JailHost in Shared Hosting
If you host your websites within a shared hosting account from our firm, you could protect them using the JailHost feature with just a few clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is available with all packages and can be activated for any folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so that files for various Internet sites do not get mixed up as it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default because you could use scripts which need access to folders outside the main site folder and this option may interfere with their correct operation, but shielding all other folders is very simple. If any secured website gets hacked for whatever reason, we will be able to restore it promptly because we'll have multiple daily backup copies of your entire account and you will even be able to view the available backups in Hepsia.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
All of our semi-dedicated server plans come with JailHost included by default. The option is not activated automatically when you add a domain as you may wish to use some script which accesses several folders in the account, but you will be able to activate it with ease via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other websites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple Internet sites as it keeps them in separate folders and does not keep the files for several sites in the very same folder as it often happens with many other Control Panels. This enables us to offer you JailHost as all the folders can be isolated from each other. In case that any one of your Internet sites gets hacked, we can quickly restore it thanks to the multiple daily backup copies that we'll keep and in the mean time your attacker won't be able to do further damage as the access to your other websites will be blocked.
