If you host multiple sites within the very same account and one of them gets hacked, it is quite possible that all of them will be hacked after that. There're several reasons why this could happen, the two most common are: using very weak passwords or using out-of-date scripts with widely known weaknesses. That way, a single compromised website will do a lot of damage to all your sites, because getting access to one script usually allows hackers to access the hosting account. This is the reason why we have developed a new security option known as JailHost. Once turned on, this option will literally lock an Internet site in its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other websites in the account will be hidden. Thus they will be protected from further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't imply that you should not keep your Internet sites up-to-date, but it will significantly limit the damage.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

JailHost is available as a standard with all the shared hosting packages that we provide and you could activate it with only a single mouse click in your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains keep their content in the primary domain folder, each domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, so using JailHost will make a big difference. You'll be able to select which Internet sites will use the feature and will be locked based on your content as you may have some site where you'd like to allow users or admins to access other folders in your website hosting account. Yet, this feature will add an extra level of security to your Internet sites along with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your sites gets hacked, you could restore it fast and easy using any one of the multiple daily backup copies of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you have a semi-dedicated hosting account, you will be able to start JailHost with a few clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel as we've included this feature in all semi-dedicated plans. It isn't activated by default because you might use an app which requires accessibility to other folders inside the account and JailHost may cause problems, but you'll be able to secure all other Internet sites by separating them from one another. It is quite easy as in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In contrast, many other Control Panels save the content of multiple websites in subfolders under a main domain, so just a single hacked site there will mean that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, just one site could possibly get damaged and even in such a circumstance, we can quickly restore it using the multiple daily backups which we will keep, which means that you can go ahead and update it afterwards so as to protect it from potential intrusions.
