In case you host multiple websites within the same account and one of them is hacked, it is very likely that all of them will get hacked afterwards. There are various reasons why this may happen, the two most common are: using really weak passwords or using outdated scripts with widely known weaknesses. This way, just a single compromised Internet site can do a lot of damage to all your Internet sites, because getting access to a single script generally allows hackers to access the entire web hosting account. This is the reason why we have introduced a top-notch security option known as JailHost. Once activated, this feature will literally lock a site within its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other websites in the account will be hidden. Thus they will be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option does not mean that you should not keep your websites up-to-date, but it'll greatly minimize the damage.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

We have included JailHost for all shared hosting solutions, so you could protect your Internet sites with just a few clicks in the Hepsia Control Panel. The option isn't active by default so as to avoid disturbing any sites where you might want visitors or administrators to be able to access content from other folders inside your account, but activating it for all your other sites is very easy. Unlike some other Control Panels where the vast majority of domains have their files in the same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their very own folders, which makes the control and the protection of multiple sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of an Internet site getting hacked, the rest of your websites will be shielded and we will have several daily backups for the damaged one, so we will be able to recover it to its initial state within a few minutes.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you have a semi-dedicated hosting account, you'll be able to activate JailHost with several clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel because we've included this option in all semi-dedicated packages. It isn't activated by default because you might use an app that needs access to other folders within the account and JailHost could cause problems, yet you can easily secure all other websites by separating them from one another. This will be very simple because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In comparison, many other Control Panels store the content of multiple sites in subfolders under a primary domain, so one hacked Internet site there means that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one site can get damaged and even if this happens, we will quickly recover it using the multiple daily backup copies which we will keep, so you can go ahead and update it afterwards to protect it from potential intrusions.
