It's not unusual for many users to use weak passwords simply because they're less difficult to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that aren't updated for a long period of time. In either of these examples, it will not be hard for a hacker to take control of the site and following that to take control of other Internet sites which are hosted in the very same account. In order to avoid such a scenario, we have added an innovative security option called JailHost. It limits the access that a script has just to its own folder, so in case one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to view any other content part of your account, therefore the damage will be minimal. Of course, employing JailHost doesn't substitute the safety measures you should take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it will enable you to limit the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Website Hosting

We have included JailHost for all website hosting packages, so you could protect all of your websites with just a few clicks within the Hepsia Control Panel. The feature is not active by default in order to prevent interfering with any sites where you may want visitors or administrators to be able to access content from other folders in your account, but activating it for all other websites is very quick. Unlike various other Control Panels where the vast majority of domains have their files in the exact same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their own folders, which makes the control and the protection of many different sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of an Internet site getting hacked, the rest of your websites will be safe and we will have a couple of daily backup copies for the infected one, which means that we can recover it to its initial state within a few minutes.
