In case you host multiple websites in the same account and one of them is hacked, it's very likely that all of them will be hacked after that. There are several reasons why this could happen, the two most popular are: using very weak passwords or using outdated scripts with known weaknesses. That way, a single compromised site can do lots of damage to all your websites, since getting access to a single script often allows hackers to access the entire web hosting account. This is the reason why we've developed an innovative security option known as JailHost. Once turned on, this option will literally lock an Internet site in its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, all the other Internet sites in the account will be hidden. Thus they will be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't imply that you should not keep your sites up to date, but it'll significantly reduce the damage.

JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you have a semi-dedicated server account, you will be able to start JailHost with several clicks from your Hepsia Control Panel because we have included this option in all semi-dedicated packages. It isn't activated by default simply because you may use an app that needs access to other folders inside the account and JailHost could potentially cause problems, yet you will be able to protect all other websites by isolating them from one another. It is very simple because in Hepsia all domains and subdomains have separate folders. In comparison, a number of other Control Panels save the content of multiple websites in subfolders under a main domain, so one hacked website there means that all of them will be hacked. With Hepsia, only one Internet site could possibly get damaged and even if this happens, we can quickly bring it back thanks to the multiple daily backup copies which we will keep, meaning that you can go ahead and update it after that so as to protect it from potential intrusions.
