JailHost
What are the main benefits of enabling the JailHost functionality? What exactly is 'JailHost', anyway?
In case you host multiple sites inside the very same account and one of them gets hacked, it's more than likely that all of them will get hacked afterwards. There are different reasons why this could happen, the two most common are: using really weak passwords or using older scripts with known vulnerabilities. That way, just a single compromised website can make lots of damage to all your websites, as getting access to a single script generally allows hackers to access the whole Internet hosting account. This is the reason why we've introduced an outstanding security option known as JailHost. Once enabled, this feature will literally lock an Internet site within its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other websites in the account will remain hidden. Thus they will be protected from further intrusion. The JailHost option does not mean that you should not keep your Internet sites up to date, but it'll significantly reduce the damage.
JailHost in Cloud Hosting
We’ve included JailHost for all cloud hosting packages, so you could protect any of your Internet sites with only a few clicks within your Hepsia Control Panel. The option is not active by default so as to avoid interfering with any sites where you may need visitors or admins to access content from other folders in your account, but activating it for all your other Internet sites is really easy. Unlike other Control Panels where the vast majority of domains have their files in the same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have separate folders, making the management and the protection of many different sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of an Internet site getting hacked, your other sites will be safe and we will have multiple daily backups for the damaged one, therefore we will be able to recover it to its original state within minutes.
