JailHost
Understand what precisely ‘JailHost’ means. Find out the primary advantages of enabling this option for your hosted domain names.
It's not unusual for many users to use weak passwords since they are less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins which aren't updated for a long time. In either of these examples, it won't be hard for a hacker to take over the Internet site and from that point on to take control of other sites that are hosted within the same account. In order to avoid this kind of a scenario, we've added an efficient security option known as JailHost. It limits the access that a script has exclusively to its own folder, so in the event that one of your websites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to view any other content in your account, thus the damage will be small. Of course, using JailHost can't substitute the safety measures you should take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll allow you to restrict any damage to one site only.

JailHost in Website Hosting
You can take advantage of JailHost with each and every
website hosting plan that we offer and protect your websites against attacks really easy. Each domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with our packages has a different folder and contrary to what can often happen with many other Control Panels, the content isn't mixed up within a single main folder, so keeping the websites separate will be rather easy. Activating JailHost for any Internet site takes just a couple of clicks, so even if you don't have a lot of experience, you won't need any special skills to keep your sites safe. The option isn't active by default in case that you would like to use some script that needs access to another folder in your account. In case you use JailHost, the rest of the websites that you have will be protected, but even a hacked one won't remain affected for long because we will have a couple of daily backups for it all of the time, so that we can promptly restore it.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our
semi-dedicated hosting solutions come with JailHost included by default. This option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name as you may want to use some script that accesses several folders in the account, but you can activate it with ease via your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple sites as 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 various other Control Panels. This enables us to offer JailHost as all folders can be separated from one another. If any one of your sites gets hacked, we'll quickly restore it because of the multiple daily backups that we'll keep and in the mean time your attacker won't be able to do further damage since the access to your other websites will be blocked.
