It is not uncommon for a lot of users to use weak passwords considering that they're much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins 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 site and from that point on to take control of other Internet sites which are hosted in the same account. In order to prevent this kind of a scenario, we've added an innovative security option called JailHost. It limits 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 inside your account, therefore the damage will be small. Of course, using JailHost will not replace the security measures you need to take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it will help you to limit the damage to one site only.
JailHost in Cloud Website Hosting
In case you host your websites within a cloud website hosting account from our firm, you could protect them by using the JailHost feature with just a few mouse clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is available with all plans and can be activated for every folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so files for various sites do not get mixed up as it frequently happens with other Control Panels. We have not activated JailHost by default because you may use scripts which require access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option could interfere with their correct operation, but securing all of the other folders is really easy. In case any protected site gets hacked for some reason, we will be able to recover it very quickly since we will have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to view the available backups through Hepsia.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
All of our semi-dedicated hosting solutions come with JailHost integrated by default. The option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain as you may want to use a certain script which accesses several folders in the account, but you'll 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 those who have multiple websites since it keeps them in individual 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 separated from one another. In case that any of your Internet sites gets hacked, we can quickly restore it because of the several daily backups that we'll keep and in the mean time the attacker will not be able to do further damage as the access to your other Internet sites will be cut off.
