JailHost
What are the main advantages of enabling the JailHost functionality? What exactly is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using out-of-date apps or templates and plug-ins for them, or using very simple passwords is always a risk for your Internet sites because these things make it much easier to hack them. Things will get even worse in case you have a few different Internet sites because all of them will be vulnerable if an attacker gets control of only one of them. This is the reason why we've developed JailHost - an advanced security option which isolates sites from each other. If an Internet site is compromised, its attacker will be unable to find or gain access to any other content outside the site folder, so all the rest of the Internet sites hosted within this account will be protected and will remain intact. Using the JailHost option won't be a substitute for performing 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 site rather than all of them.

JailHost in Website Hosting
In case you host your Internet sites in a
website hosting account from our company, you'll be able to protect them 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 activated for every folder since the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have individual folders, so that files for various Internet sites never get mixed up as it often happens with other Control Panels. We have not activated JailHost by default as you could use scripts which require access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option can interfere with their correct functioning, but securing all of the other folders is really easy. In case any protected Internet site gets hacked for some reason, we will be able to restore it promptly because we'll have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups through Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
All our
semi-dedicated server packages come with JailHost included by default. The option is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name as you may want to use some script which accesses several folders in the account, but you'll be able to activate it without difficulty from your Hepsia Control Panel and protect your other sites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use when you have multiple sites since it keeps them in individual folders and does not keep the files for several websites in the same folder as it often happens with alternative Control Panels. This enables us to offer you JailHost as all of the folders can be isolated from one another. In case that any one of your websites gets hacked, we'll be able to promptly restore it thanks to the several daily backups which we'll keep and meanwhile your attacker will not be able to do further damage since the access to your other Internet sites will be cut off.
