JailHost
What are the basic pros of enabling the JailHost functionality? What is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using obsolete applications or templates and plug-ins for them, or using very simple passwords is always a risk for your Internet sites since these things make it easier hack them. Things get worse in case you have a lot of sites as all of them will be vulnerable if an attacker takes over just one of them. This is the reason why we have created JailHost - an advanced security option which isolates websites from each other. If an Internet site is compromised, its attacker will not be able to see or gain access to any other content outside the website folder, so all other Internet sites part of the account will be protected and will be intact. Using the JailHost option cannot substitute carrying out regular script updates or using proper passwords, but it will minimize the damage to your Internet sites significantly, so you'll have to fix only one website not all of them.

JailHost in Cloud Website Hosting
In case you host your sites inside a
cloud website hosting account from our company, you will be able to protect them by using the JailHost option with just a few mouse clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is accessible with all plans and can be activated for every folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, so files for various websites never get mixed up like it regularly happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default because you could use scripts which need access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option could interfere with their proper operation, but protecting all other folders is really easy. If a secured site gets hacked for some reason, we'll be able to recover it without delay since we will have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to browse the available backups in Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
All our
semi-dedicated hosting plans come with JailHost included by default. The option is not activated automatically when you add a domain since you may wish to use some script which accesses different folders in the account, yet you can activate it without any difficulty from your Hepsia Control Panel and protect the rest of your Internet sites with just a couple of clicks. Hepsia is much better to use when you have multiple Internet sites since it keeps them in separate folders and doesn't keep the files for several websites in the same folder as it often happens with alternative Control Panels. This allows us to offer JailHost as all of the folders can be isolated from one another. In case that any of your sites is hacked, we will almost instantly restore it because of the multiple daily backups which we'll keep and in the mean time the attacker won't be able to do further damage because the access to your other sites will be cut off.
