It is not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords considering that they're much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that aren't updated for a long time. In either of these instances, it won't be difficult for a hacker to take over the website and following that to take control of other websites which may be hosted within the very same account. To prevent this kind of a scenario, we have added an advanced level security option named JailHost. It limits the access which a script has just to its own folder, so if one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to see any other content inside your account, so the damage will be small. Needless to say, using JailHost won't substitute the safety measures you need to take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will help you to restrict the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Web Hosting

In case you host your websites within a shared web hosting account from our company, you'll be able to protect them by using the JailHost option with just a couple of clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is accessible with all packages and can be enabled for each folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, so that files for different sites don't get mixed up like it quite often happens with other Control Panels. We have not activated JailHost by default as you could use scripts which need access to folders outside the main website folder and this option could interfere with their proper operation, but securing all the other folders is simple and easy. In case any secured Internet site gets hacked for whatever reason, we will be able to restore it in a short time as we'll have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to search the available backups from Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

JailHost is available with all of our semi-dedicated hosting plans, so if you host multiple websites, you will be able to isolate them from each other in order to keep them safe. This option has to be activated for each Internet site and is not active by default, so as to avoid interference with scripts which need access to multiple folders within the account. Activating it for all other domains will take no more than a few mouse clicks in the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Unlike many other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place multiple Internet sites under the primary domain folder. Instead, every single domain or subdomain has its own folder, which makes it much simpler to maintain and secure your Internet sites. In case that a website in your account gets hacked, not only will your other Internet sites remain untouched, but we can also restore the damaged Internet site in no time because we will have multiple backups of your content.
