JailHost
What are the advantages of having the JailHost functionality? What exactly is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using outdated apps or templates and plugins for them, or using simple passwords always poses a threat to your Internet sites as these things make it significantly easier hack them. Things can get worse in case you have multiple sites because all of them will be in danger when an attacker takes over just one of them. For this reason we have developed JailHost - an advanced security option which isolates Internet 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 other Internet sites inside the account will be protected and will be intact. The JailHost option will not substitute carrying out regular script updates or using complex 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 Web Hosting
In case you host your Internet sites within a
web hosting account from our firm, you'll be able to protect them by using the JailHost option with just a couple of mouse clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. This feature is accessible with all packages and can be activated for any folder as the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, so files for many different Internet sites do not get mixed up as it frequently happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you may use scripts that need access to folders outside the main site folder and this option may interfere with their correct functioning, but shielding all other folders is very easy. In case a secured site gets hacked for whatever reason, we'll be able to recover it very quickly as we will have multiple daily backups of your entire account and you will even be able to search the available backups using Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
JailHost comes with all of our
semi-dedicated hosting plans and you will be able to activate it with several clicks. It is not activated by default because we do not want to prevent some scripts which require to gain access to multiple folders in the account from functioning properly. You could activate JailHost for all other Internet sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and you can do this effortlessly even when you have no previous experience. What enables us to offer JailHost is the way Hepsia handles multiple domains - they all have individual folders which can be "locked". In comparison, other widespread Control Panels have add-on domains and their content is kept in the primary domain folder, so in case a single Internet site is hacked, the entire account is hacked, that isn't the case with Hepsia. If an Internet site is damaged regardless of your efforts, we shall be able to restore it the way it was almost immediately as we will keep a few daily backups of the whole account.
