JailHost
What are the main benefits of enabling the JailHost functionality? What is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using out-of-date apps or templates and plugins for them, or using very simple passwords is always dangerous for your Internet sites as these things make it easier hack them. Things will get even worse in case you have multiple websites because all of them will be vulnerable if an attacker gets control of just one of them. Because of this we've created JailHost - an advanced security option that isolates websites from each other. In the event that a website gets compromised, its attacker will not be able to view or gain access to any other content outside the website folder, so all the other Internet sites part of this account will be protected and will be intact. Using the JailHost option does not be a substitute for carrying out regular script updates or using difficult passwords, but it'll minimize any damage to your Internet sites significantly, so you'll have to fix only one Internet site and not all of them.

JailHost in Cloud Website Hosting
In case you host your websites in a
cloud website hosting account from our company, you could protect them using the JailHost feature with just a few clicks inside your Hepsia Control Panel. This option is available with all plans and can be activated for every folder because the domains and subdomains in Hepsia have different folders, so files for different websites never get mixed up as it often happens with other Control Panels. We haven't activated JailHost by default as you might use scripts that require access to folders outside the primary site folder and this option may interfere with their correct operation, but securing all the other folders is really easy. If a secured site gets hacked for some reason, we will be able to recover it in a short time as we'll have multiple daily backup copies of your entire account and you will even be able to view the available backups from Hepsia.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you have a
semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to activate JailHost with a couple of clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel because we've included this feature in all semi-dedicated packages. It is not activated by default simply because you may use an app that requires access to other folders within the account and JailHost may cause problems, but you will be able to protect all other sites by separating them from each other. It is super easy because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have individual folders. In comparison, a lot of other Control Panels save the content of multiple Internet sites in subfolders under a primary domain, so one single hacked site there will mean that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one site could possibly get damaged and even if this happens, we will quickly recover it via the multiple daily backup copies which we will keep, so you can go ahead and update it afterwards so as to protect it from potential intrusions.
