In case you host multiple Internet sites inside the exact same account and one of them gets hacked, it is likely that all of them will be hacked afterwards. There're various reasons why this may happen, the two most common are: using really weak passwords or using outdated scripts with well-known vulnerabilities. This way, one single compromised Internet site can make a lot of damage to all of your websites, since gaining access to a single script normally allows hackers to access the whole Internet hosting account. This is the reason why we have developed a new security option known as JailHost. Once activated, this option will literally lock an Internet site inside its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the other Internet sites in the account will remain hidden. Thus they will be protected from further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't imply that you should not keep your websites up to date, but it'll significantly minimize the damage.
JailHost in Website Hosting
We’ve included JailHost for all website hosting plans, so you could protect your websites with only a couple of clicks in the Hepsia Control Panel. The feature is not enabled by default in order to avoid interfering with any sites where you may need visitors or admins to be able to access content from other folders in your account, but activating it for all your other sites is very quick. Unlike various other Control Panels where many domains have their files in the exact same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their own folders, making the control and the protection of many different websites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of a site getting hacked, your other Internet sites will be protected and we'll have a couple of daily backups for the damaged one, which means that we can restore it to its initial state in a couple of minutes.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Hosting
JailHost is provided with all our semi-dedicated hosting solutions, so in case you host several sites, you will be able to separate them from each other and keep them safe. The option must be activated for each and every website and is not active by default, to avoid interference with scripts that need access to multiple folders inside the account. Enabling it for all other websites will take no more than several mouse clicks inside the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia doesn't place several websites under the main domain folder. Instead, each domain or subdomain has its own folder, which makes it easier to maintain and shield your Internet sites. In case that an Internet site in your account is hacked, not only will your other sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the damaged site very quickly because we will have multiple backups of your whole content.
