JailHost
What are the actual advantages of having the JailHost functionality? What exactly is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using obsolete apps or templates and plugins for them, or using very simple passwords is always a risk for your sites as these things make it easier hack them. Things can get even worse if you have multiple websites because all of them will be in danger when an attacker takes over only one of them. For this reason we've introduced JailHost - an advanced level security option that isolates Internet sites from each other. If an Internet site is compromised, its attacker will not be able to find or gain access to any other content outside the website folder, so all the rest of the websites part of this account will be protected and will remain intact. The JailHost option does not replace doing regular script updates or using proper passwords, but it will minimize the damage to your Internet sites significantly, so you'll need to fix only one site and not all of them.

JailHost in Website Hosting
JailHost is available as a standard with all the
website hosting packages that we provide and you can enable it with only a single mouse click inside your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content in the primary domain folder, every single domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its very own folder, which means that using JailHost will make a major difference. You'll be able to pick which sites will use this feature and will be locked based on your content because you may have some Internet site where you would like to allow users or administrators to be able to access other folders inside your hosting account. Yet, this feature will add a further level of security to your Internet sites along with the firewalls which we use and even if any of your sites is hacked, you will be able to recover it quick and easy using any of the multiple daily backup copies of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
JailHost is provided with all of our
semi-dedicated server plans, so in case you host multiple sites, you will be able to isolate them from each other to keep them safe. This feature has to be activated for each site and is not turned on by default, in order to avoid interference with scripts which need access to multiple folders within the account. Activating it for all other domains will take no more than several mouse clicks within the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia does not place several Internet sites under the main domain folder. Instead, every domain or subdomain has its own folder, which makes it much easier to manage and protect all your sites. In case that a site in your account is hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we will also be able to recover the damaged Internet site before you know it because we will have multiple backups of your entire content.
