JailHost
What are the main advantages of activating the JailHost functionality? What is 'JailHost', anyway?
Using obsolete apps or templates and plug-ins for them, or using simple passwords always poses a threat to your sites because these things make it significantly easier hack them. Things will get even worse when you have a few different sites because all of them will be in danger when an attacker takes over only one of them. For this reason we've created JailHost - an advanced security feature that isolates sites from each other. If an Internet site is compromised, its attacker will not be able to view or access any other content outside the site folder, so all the rest of the sites part of this account will be protected and will remain intact. The JailHost option cannot be a substitute for carrying out routine script updates or using difficult passwords, but it'll minimize any damage to your websites significantly, so you will have to fix only one site not all of them.

JailHost in Shared Web Hosting
JailHost is available as standard with all the
shared web hosting plans that we provide and you could activate it with just a single click in your Hepsia Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels where add-on domains store their content in the primary domain folder, each domain or subdomain in Hepsia has its own folder, therefore using JailHost can make a major difference. You will be able to choose which Internet sites will use the option and will be locked depending on your content as you may have some Internet site where you want to allow users or admins to be able to access other folders in your Internet hosting account. Nevertheless, this feature will add a further level of security to your websites in addition to the firewalls that we use and even if any of your Internet sites gets hacked, you'll be able to restore it fast and easy using any of the several daily backup copies of your entire account that we'll generate.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
JailHost is provided with all of our
semi-dedicated hosting packages, so if you host several different Internet sites, you will be able to separate them from each other and keep them safe. This option has to be activated for each site and is not turned on by default, so as to avoid interference with scripts that need access to multiple folders within the account. Activating it for all other websites will take no more than several clicks within the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia doesn't place several sites under the main domain folder. Instead, each domain or subdomain has its own folder, that makes it much easier to maintain and secure all your sites. In case that a website inside your account gets hacked, not only will your other websites remain untouched, but we will also be able to restore the damaged site in a short time as we will have multiple backup copies of your whole content.
