It is not unusual for lots of users to use weak passwords since they are much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins that aren't updated for a long time. In either of these examples, it will not be a challenge for a hacker to take over the Internet site and following that to take control of other sites which are hosted within the same account. In order to prevent this kind of a scenario, we've added an excellent security option called JailHost. It limits the access which a script has solely to its own folder, so in case one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to view any other content inside your account, thus the damage will be small. Of course, employing JailHost does not replace the security measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, but it will help you to limit any damage to one site only.
JailHost in Web Hosting
If you host your websites within a web hosting account from our company, you will be able to protect them by using the JailHost feature with just a few mouse clicks within your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is accessible with all packages and can be enabled for every folder since the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have individual folders, so that files for various websites don't get mixed up like it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you might use scripts that need access to folders outside the main site folder and this option could interfere with their proper operation, but shielding all other folders is very easy. If any secured Internet site gets hacked for some reason, we'll be able to restore it without delay because we will have multiple daily backup copies of your entire account and you will even be able to search the available backups in Hepsia.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
JailHost is provided with all of our semi-dedicated hosting plans, so if you host several sites, you'll be able to isolate them from each other in order to keep them safe. This option must be activated for each and every Internet site and is not active by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts which require access to multiple folders within the account. Enabling it for all other domains will take no more than a couple of clicks in the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place several Internet sites under the primary domain folder. Instead, each and every domain or subdomain has its very own folder, that makes it much easier to manage and shield all of your websites. In case that a site inside your account gets hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the damaged site before you know it since we will have multiple backup copies of your whole content.
