In case you host multiple websites in the exact same account and one of them gets hacked, it's more than likely that all of them will get hacked after that. There are several reasons why this may happen, the two most popular are: using very weak passwords or using out-of-date scripts with well-known weaknesses. That way, a single compromised site will do a lot of damage to all your Internet sites, as getting access to a single script normally allows hackers to access the entire web hosting account. This is the reason why we've developed a new security option known as JailHost. Once enabled, this option will literally lock a website within its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the other websites in the account will be hidden. Thus they'll be resistant to further intrusion. The JailHost option doesn't imply that you should not keep your sites up to date, but it'll greatly minimize the damage.
JailHost in Cloud Web Hosting
We have included JailHost for all cloud web hosting plans, so you could protect each of your Internet sites with only a few clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The feature isn't active by default to avoid interfering with any websites where you may want visitors or administrators to be able to access content from other folders inside your account, but activating it for all other sites is really effortless. Unlike some other Control Panels where most of the domains have their files in the same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their very own folders, making the management and the protection of multiple websites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of a website getting hacked, the rest of your sites will be protected and we'll have a couple of daily backup copies for the damaged one, therefore we can restore it to its original state in a matter of minutes.
JailHost in Semi-dedicated Servers
JailHost is available with all our semi-dedicated server packages, so if you host multiple Internet sites, you can easily separate them from one another and keep them safe. This feature has to be activated for every single Internet site and is not enabled by default, to avoid interference with scripts that require access to multiple folders within the account. Enabling it for all other websites will take no more than a couple of clicks inside the Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Unlike other Control Panels, Hepsia doesn't place different sites under the main domain folder. Instead, every single domain or subdomain has its own folder, which makes it simpler to control and shield your Internet sites. In case that a site inside your account is hacked, not only will your other Internet sites remain untouched, but we'll also be able to recover the affected website before you know it as we will have multiple backup copies of your content.
