JailHost
Know just what exactly ‘JailHost’ represents. Find the benefits of activating this feature for your hosted domains.
In case you host multiple Internet sites within the very same account and one of them is hacked, it is quite possible that all of them will be hacked after that. There're different reasons why this may happen, the two most common are: using very weak passwords or using outdated scripts with widely known weaknesses. This way, a single compromised Internet site will do lots of damage to all your websites, because getting access to a single script often allows hackers to access the entire web hosting account. This is the reason why we have introduced a brand new security option named JailHost. Once turned on, this feature will literally lock a website in its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the other Internet sites in the account will be hidden. Thus they will be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't imply that you should not keep your Internet sites up-to-date, but it will greatly limit the damage.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting
If you host your websites inside a
cloud hosting account from our firm, you could protect them using the JailHost option with just a few mouse clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is accessible with all packages and can be activated for each folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, so that files for various websites never get mixed up as it usually happens with other Control Panels. We have not activated JailHost by default as you might use scripts which require access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option can interfere with their correct operation, but shielding all the other folders is really easy. In case any secured website gets hacked for some reason, we will be able to recover it easily because we'll have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups using Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
semi-dedicated hosting plans come with JailHost integrated by default. This option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name as you may need to use a specific script which accesses several folders in the account, yet you'll be able to activate it with ease via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other Internet sites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple sites since it keeps them in separate folders and doesn't keep the files for several sites in the very same folder like it often happens with many other Control Panels. This enables us to offer you JailHost as all of the folders can be isolated from one another. In case that any one of your sites gets hacked, we will be able to almost instantly restore it using the several daily backups that we will keep and meanwhile the attacker won't be able to do further damage because the access to your other Internet sites will be stopped.
