It's not unusual for lots of users to use weak passwords since they're easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which aren't updated for a long time. In either of these examples, it will not be very difficult for a hacker to take control of the site and following that to take control of other sites which may be hosted in the very same account. In order to prevent such a scenario, we have added an excellent security option named JailHost. It restricts the access that 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 view any other content in your account, which means that the damage will be small. Needless to say, using JailHost will not substitute the security measures you need to take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it will allow you to limit any damage to one site only.
JailHost in Website Hosting
In case you host your websites inside a website hosting account from our firm, you can protect them by using the JailHost feature with just a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is provided with all packages and can be activated for each folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so files for different sites don't get mixed up as it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default because you might use scripts which need access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option may interfere with their correct operation, but shielding all other folders is simple and easy. In case any protected website gets hacked for whatever reason, we can recover it without delay as we will have multiple daily backups 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 enabled automatically when you add a domain name since you may want to use a specific script that accesses multiple folders in the account, but you can activate it without difficulty via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other websites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use when you 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 other Control Panels. This allows us to offer you JailHost as all folders can be isolated from one another. In case that any of your Internet sites gets hacked, we can quickly restore it because of the several daily backups which we'll keep and meanwhile your attacker won't be able to do further damage because the access to your other sites will be stopped.
