If you host multiple websites inside the same account and one of them is hacked, it is quite possible that all of them will be hacked afterwards. There are different reasons why this could happen, the two most popular are: using very weak passwords or using older scripts with well-known vulnerabilities. This way, a single compromised site can do lots of damage to all your sites, since getting access to a single script generally allows hackers to access the entire web hosting account. This is the reason why we have created a brand new security option called JailHost. Once enabled, this option will literally lock an Internet site inside its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other sites in the account will be hidden. Thus they will be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option does not mean that you should not keep your Internet sites up-to-date, but it'll greatly limit the damage.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

JailHost is available by default with all the shared hosting packages that we offer and you could enable it with only a click inside your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content in the main domain folder, every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, therefore using JailHost will make a major difference. You'll be able to pick which Internet sites will use the option and will be locked based on your content because you may have some site where you'd like to allow users or administrators to be able to access other folders inside your hosting account. Yet, this option will add a further level of security to your websites in addition to the firewalls which we use and even if any of your sites is hacked, you will be able to restore it quick and easy using any one of the multiple daily backup copies of your entire account which we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

All of our semi-dedicated server plans come with JailHost provided by default. This option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain since you may wish to use a certain script that accesses different folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it with ease through your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other Internet sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use if you have multiple websites because it keeps them in separate folders and does not keep the files for several websites in the very same folder like it often happens with alternative Control Panels. This enables us to offer JailHost as all the folders can be separated from each other. If any of your websites is hacked, we'll quickly restore it thanks to the multiple daily backups which we will keep and meanwhile your attacker won't be able to do further damage because the access to your other sites will be cut off.
