JailHost
Discover just what ‘JailHost’ represents. Discover the primary advantages of activating this option for your hosted domain names.
In case you host multiple websites inside the exact same account and one of them is hacked, it is quite possible that all of them will get hacked afterwards. There are different reasons why this could happen, the two most popular are: using really weak passwords or using out-of-date scripts with widely known vulnerabilities. This way, a single compromised Internet site can do a lot of damage to all your websites, as getting access to a single script usually allows hackers to access the whole hosting account. This is the reason why we have created a top-notch security option called JailHost. Once turned on, this feature will literally lock an Internet site inside its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other websites in the account will remain hidden. Thus they will be shielded from further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't imply that you should not keep your Internet sites up to date, but it'll significantly minimize the damage.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
JailHost comes with all our semi-dedicated server plans and you will be able to activate it with a couple of clicks. It is not enabled by default because we do not want to prevent some scripts that may need to gain access to multiple folders in the account from working properly. You could activate JailHost for all other Internet sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and you can do this very easily even if you have no previous experience. What enables us to offer JailHost is the way Hepsia takes care of multiple domains - they all have separate folders that can be "locked". In contrast, other popular Control Panels feature add-on domains and their content is kept in the main domain folder, so in case a single website is hacked, the whole account is hacked, which isn't the case with Hepsia. In case an Internet site is damaged despite your efforts, we will be able to recover it the way it was almost immediately because we'll store a few daily backup copies of your entire account.
