JailHost
What are the main benefits of activating the JailHost functionality? What is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using outdated apps or templates and plugins for them, or using simple passwords is always a risk for your sites because these things make it much easier to hack them. Things can get worse in case you have multiple websites since all of them will be in danger when an attacker gets control of only one of them. For this reason we've developed JailHost - an advanced security feature that isolates websites from each other. In the event that an Internet site is compromised, the attacker will not be able to find or access any other content outside the site folder, so all other sites hosted within this account will be protected and will remain intact. Using the JailHost option will never substitute carrying out regular script updates or using proper passwords, but it'll minimize any damage to your sites significantly, so you will need to fix only one website and not all of them.

JailHost in Cloud Hosting
We’ve included JailHost for all
cloud hosting packages, so you could protect each of your sites with only a couple of clicks within your Hepsia Control Panel. The feature isn't enabled by default in order to avoid disturbing any Internet sites where you might want visitors or admins to access content from other folders inside your account, but activating it for all other websites is really effortless. Unlike other Control Panels where the majority of domains have their files in the same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, which makes the control and the protection of many different sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of a website getting hacked, your other websites will be safe and we'll have a couple of daily backups for the affected one, so we can bring it back to its original state in a matter of minutes.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
In case you have a
semi-dedicated hosting account, you will be able to activate JailHost with a couple of clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel as we have included this option in all of our semi-dedicated plans. It isn't activated by default because you might use an application which requires accessibility to other folders inside the account and JailHost could potentially cause problems, yet you could secure all other sites by separating them from one another. It is quite easy as in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In comparison, a number of other Control Panels save the content of multiple Internet sites in subfolders under a primary domain, so one hacked Internet site there will mean that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, just one site could get damaged and even if this happens, we can quickly restore it via the multiple daily backups that we will keep, so you can go ahead and update it afterwards in order to protect it from potential intrusions.
