If you host multiple websites in the exact same account and one of them gets hacked, it is more than likely that all of them will be hacked afterwards. There're several reasons why this could happen, the two most popular are: using very weak passwords or using out-of-date scripts with widely known vulnerabilities. That way, one single compromised Internet site can make a lot of damage to all your sites, as getting access to a single script usually allows hackers to access the whole Internet hosting account. This is the reason why we've introduced an outstanding security option called JailHost. Once activated, this feature will literally lock an Internet site in its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the remaining Internet sites in the account will remain hidden. Thus they will be protected from further intrusion. The JailHost option does not mean that you should not keep your sites updated, but it will significantly reduce the damage.

JailHost in Web Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the web hosting packages that we provide and you can enable it with only a single click in your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains keep their content in the primary domain folder, each domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, thus using JailHost can make a significant difference. You will be able to choose which Internet sites will use this feature and will be locked based on your content as you may have some website where you prefer to allow users or administrators to be able to access other folders in your Internet hosting account. Nevertheless, the option will add a further level of security to your sites in addition to the firewalls which we use and even if any of your Internet sites is hacked, you'll be able to restore it really easy using any one of the several daily backup copies of your entire account which we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you have a semi-dedicated hosting account, you will be able to activate JailHost with several clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel since we've included this feature in all of our semi-dedicated plans. It isn't activated by default as you might use an application that needs access to other folders inside the account and JailHost could cause problems, yet you can secure all other Internet sites by separating them from one another. This will be really easy as in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have individual folders. In contrast, numerous other Control Panels keep the content of multiple sites in subfolders under a main domain, so one hacked Internet site there means that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one Internet site could get damaged and even if this happens, we will quickly bring it back thanks to the multiple daily backups which we will keep, which means that you can go ahead and update it after that to protect it from potential future intrusions.
