Using outdated applications or templates and plug-ins for them, or using very simple passwords is always a risk for your Internet sites because these things make it considerably easier hack them. Things get worse if you have a lot of sites since all of them will be vulnerable when an attacker gets control of only one of them. For this reason we have introduced JailHost - an advanced security option that isolates Internet sites from each other. In the event that 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 sites part of the account will be protected and will remain intact. The JailHost option won't be a substitute for carrying out routine script updates or using complex passwords, but it'll minimize the damage to your websites significantly, so you'll need to fix only one Internet site rather than all of them.
JailHost in Shared Hosting
We have included JailHost for all shared hosting plans, so you could protect all of your Internet sites with just a couple of clicks inside the Hepsia Control Panel. The option isn't active by default so as to prevent disturbing any Internet sites where you might want visitors or administrators to access content from other folders in your account, but activating it for all your other websites is very simple. Unlike various other Control Panels where a lot of domains have their files in the very same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, which makes the control and the protection of multiple websites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of a site getting hacked, the rest of your Internet sites will be safe and we always have a couple of daily backup copies for the affected one, therefore we can bring it back to its initial state within a few minutes.
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 from your Hepsia Control Panel since we've included this feature in all semi-dedicated packages. It isn't activated by default as you might use an application which requires accessibility to other folders inside the account and JailHost might cause problems, but you can easily protect all other sites by isolating them from one another. It is very easy because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have individual folders. In contrast, many other Control Panels save the content of multiple sites in subfolders under a main domain, so just one hacked site there will mean that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one website could get damaged and even in such a circumstance, we will quickly restore it thanks to the multiple daily backup copies which we will keep, so you can go ahead and update it afterwards to protect it from potential future attacks.
