JailHost
Learn just what ‘JailHost’ means. Identify the advantages from enabling this feature for your hosted domains.
Using obsolete apps or templates and plug-ins for them, or using simple passwords always poses a threat to your sites as these things make it much easier to hack them. Things can get worse if you have a couple of sites because all of them will be in danger when an attacker takes over just one of them. For this reason we've introduced JailHost - an advanced security feature that isolates Internet sites from each other. If a site gets compromised, the attacker will be unable to find or gain access to any other content outside the website folder, so all other Internet sites in the account will be protected and will be intact. The JailHost option does not be a substitute for doing regular script updates or using proper passwords, but it'll minimize the damage to your websites significantly, so you will have to fix only one website instead of all of them.

JailHost in Shared Hosting
JailHost is available by default with all the
shared hosting packages that we offer and you could activate it with just a single click from your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content in the main domain folder, each and every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, which means that using JailHost will make a big difference. You will be able to pick which Internet sites will use the option and will be locked in accordance with your content because you may have some site where you'd like to allow users or administrators to access other folders in your website hosting account. Nevertheless, this option will add an extra level of security to your sites together with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your sites gets hacked, you'll be able to restore it fast and easy using any of the several daily backups of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our
semi-dedicated server solutions come with JailHost provided by default. The option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain because you may want to use a specific script that accesses different folders in the account, yet you can activate it easily from your Hepsia Control Panel and protect the rest of your sites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for those who have multiple websites as it keeps them in individual folders and does not keep the files for several Internet sites in the same folder like it often happens with many other Control Panels. This enables us to offer JailHost as all of the folders can be separated from one another. In case that any of your Internet sites gets hacked, we'll be able to almost instantly restore it using the several daily backups that we will keep and meanwhile the attacker won't be able to do further damage as the access to your other sites will be stopped.
