JailHost
Discover just what exactly ‘JailHost’ stands for. Find out the benefits associated with activating this feature for your hosted domain names.
Using outdated applications or templates and plug-ins for them, or using very simple passwords is always a risk for your websites because these things make it considerably easier hack them. This will get worse if you have multiple sites as all of them will be vulnerable when an attacker takes over only one of them. This is the reason why we have developed JailHost - an advanced security option that isolates sites from each other. If a site is compromised, the attacker will be unable to view or gain access to any other content outside the website folder, so all the rest of the Internet sites part of the account will be protected and will be intact. The JailHost option cannot be a substitute for doing regular script updates or using proper passwords, but it'll minimize any damage to your sites significantly, so you will have to fix only one website rather than all of them.

JailHost in Web Hosting
You can take advantage of JailHost with each and every
web hosting plan that we provide and protect your Internet sites against attacks really easy. Every single domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our plans has a separate folder and contrary to what often happens with some other Control Panels, the website content isn't mixed up within just a single main folder, so keeping your sites separate will be easier. Enabling JailHost for any site takes only a couple of clicks, so even if you do not have much experience, you won't need any specific skills in order to keep your sites protected. The option is not active by default in case that you wish to use a script which requires access to a different folder inside your account. In case you use JailHost, the rest of the websites that you have will be secured, but even a hacked one won't remain damaged for long because we will have a couple of daily backups for it all the time, so that we could promptly restore it.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
JailHost comes with all our
semi-dedicated hosting solutions and you will be able to activate it with a few clicks. It is not enabled by default since we do not want to prevent some scripts that may need to access multiple folders in your account from working properly. You could activate JailHost for all other sites that you have from the Hepsia Control Panel and you can do this very easily even if you don't have any previous experience. What allows us to offer JailHost is the way in which Hepsia takes care of multiple domains - they all have individual folders that could be "locked". In contrast, other widespread Control Panels have add-on domains and the content of the latter is stored in the primary domain folder, so if a single website is hacked, the entire account is hacked, that isn't the case with Hepsia. In case a site is damaged regardless of your efforts, we'll be able to recover it the way it was almost instantly as we will have a couple of daily backup copies of the whole account.
