Using out-of-date applications or templates and plug-ins for them, or using very simple passwords is always a risk for your Internet sites as these things make it easier hack them. Things get worse if you have a few different Internet sites as all of them will be in danger when an attacker takes over just one of them. This is the reason why we've introduced JailHost - an advanced security feature that isolates websites from each other. If a website is compromised, the attacker will not be able to see or gain access to any other content outside the site folder, so all other Internet sites inside the account will be protected and will be intact. The JailHost option won't be a substitute for performing routine script updates or using complex passwords, but it'll minimize the damage to your websites significantly, so you'll need to fix only one site rather than all of them.
JailHost in Shared Website Hosting
JailHost is available by default with all the shared website hosting packages that we provide and you can enable it with just a single click from your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content inside the main domain folder, every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, which means that using JailHost will make a major difference. You will be able to select which websites will use this option and will be locked based on your content since you could have some website where you'd like to allow users or administrators to access other folders in your hosting account. Nevertheless, the option will add one more level of security to your websites together with the firewalls that we use and even if any of your sites is hacked, you could recover it quick and easy using any one of the several daily backups of your entire account that we will generate.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
JailHost is provided with all our semi-dedicated server packages, so if you host several websites, you'll be able to isolate them from one another so as to keep them safe. This option has to be activated for every single website and is not enabled by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts that require access to multiple folders within the account. Activating it for all other websites will take no more than several mouse clicks in the Hepsia internet hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place several Internet sites under the main domain folder. Instead, every domain or subdomain has its own folder, that makes it simpler to take care of and secure all of your websites. In case that a website inside your account gets hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we can also recover the damaged Internet site very quickly because we will have multiple backups of your whole content.
