JailHost
Learn just what ‘JailHost’ stands for. Find the advantages from activating this option for your hosted domain names.
It's not uncommon for many users to use weak passwords because they are easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plugins which are not updated for a long period of time. In either of these instances, it won't be a challenge for a hacker to take over the Internet site and from there on to take control of other sites which may be hosted within the very same account. To prevent this scenario, we've added an excellent security option named JailHost. It restricts the access that a script has exclusively to its own folder, so in the event that one of your sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but won't be able to access any other content part of your account, thus the damage will be minimal. Needless to say, using JailHost doesn't replace the security measures you should always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, yet it'll enable you to restrict the damage to one site only.

JailHost in Shared Hosting
You can take advantage of JailHost with every single
shared hosting plan that we provide and protect your sites against attacks really easy. Each domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel which comes with our plans has a separate folder and in contrast to what often happens with other Control Panels, the content is not mixed up inside a single main folder, so maintaining your Internet sites separate is much easier. Activating JailHost for any website takes just a few clicks, so even when you don't have much experience, you will not need any specific skills to be able to maintain your websites secure. The option is not active by default in case that you intend to use a script that requires accessibility to a different folder in your account. In case you use JailHost, the other sites that you have will be secured, but even a hacked one will not remain damaged for too long since we will have several daily backups for it at all times, so that we could easily restore it.
