JailHost
What are the basic pros of activating the JailHost functionality? What exactly is 'JailHost', anyway?
In case you host multiple websites in the very same account and one of them gets hacked, it is quite possible that all of them will get hacked after that. There are various reasons why this may happen, the two most popular are: using very weak passwords or using older scripts with well-known weaknesses. In this way, a single compromised Internet site will do a lot of damage to all of your websites, since gaining access to one script normally allows hackers to access the Internet hosting account. This is the reason why we have introduced a top-notch security option named JailHost. Once enabled, this option will literally lock a site in its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other Internet sites in the account will be hidden. Thus they'll be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't suggest that you should not keep your websites updated, but it'll greatly reduce the damage.

JailHost in Website Hosting
You can take advantage of JailHost with each and every
website hosting plan that we offer and protect your websites against attacks quick and easy. Every single domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our packages has a separate folder and in contrast to what can often happen with many other Control Panels, the website content is not mixed within just a single main folder, so maintaining your sites separate is easier. Allowing JailHost for any site takes just a few clicks, so even if you don't have much experience, you will not need any special skills in order to keep your websites safe. The option is not active by default in case that you'd like to use some 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 secured, but even a hacked one will not remain damaged for long because we will have a couple of daily backups for it all of the time, so we can promptly recover it.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
JailHost is available with all of our
semi-dedicated server solutions, so in case you host several sites, you will be able to separate them from each other to keep them safe. The option should be activated for each Internet site and is not active by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts that require access to multiple folders within the account. Enabling it for all other domains will take no more than several mouse clicks within the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia doesn't place multiple Internet sites under the primary domain folder. Instead, each and every domain or subdomain has its very own folder, that makes it simpler to control and shield your Internet sites. In case that a website inside your account gets hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to restore the affected Internet site before you know it since we will have multiple backups of your whole content.
