In case you host multiple Internet sites within the exact same account and one of them gets hacked, it's very likely that all of them will get hacked after that. There're various reasons why this could happen, the two most common are: using very weak passwords or using older scripts with widely known vulnerabilities. In this way, just a single compromised website can make lots of damage to all of your websites, because getting access to a single script normally allows hackers to access the Internet hosting account. This is the reason why we've developed an innovative security option known as JailHost. Once activated, this feature will literally lock a site inside its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the other sites in the account will remain hidden. Thus they'll be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't suggest that you should not keep your websites up-to-date, but it'll greatly minimize the damage.
JailHost in Cloud Website Hosting
JailHost is available by default with all the cloud website hosting plans that we offer and you can activate it with only a single mouse click in your Hepsia Control Panel. In contrast to other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content within the main domain folder, every domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, which means that using JailHost shall make a big difference. You can choose which Internet sites will use this option and will be locked in accordance with your content since you may have some website where you would like to allow users or administrators to access other folders inside your hosting account. Nonetheless, this feature will add one more level of security to your websites in addition to the firewalls which we use and even if any of your Internet sites is hacked, you will be able to restore it really easy using any of the several daily backups of your entire account that we'll generate.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
All of our semi-dedicated server packages come with JailHost integrated by default. This feature is not enabled automatically when you add a domain name since you may wish to use a script which accesses several folders in the account, yet you can activate it with ease through your Hepsia Control Panel and protect the rest of your sites with just a few clicks. Hepsia is much better to use for people who have multiple sites as 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 the folders can be isolated from one another. If any of your Internet sites is hacked, we can quickly restore it thanks to the several daily backups which we'll keep and meanwhile your attacker won't be able to do further damage because the access to your other Internet sites will be cut off.
