It is not uncommon for a lot of users to use weak passwords simply because they're much easier to remember or to use scripts, templates and plug-ins that aren't updated for a long time. In either of these examples, it won't be difficult for a hacker to take over the Internet site and following that to take control of other websites which are hosted within the same account. To prevent this scenario, we've added an innovative security option known as JailHost. It restricts the access that a script has just to its own folder, so if one of your Internet sites is compromised, the attacker will see its content, but will not be able to see any other content inside your account, thus the damage will be small. Of course, using JailHost does not replace the safety measures you must always take by keeping your scripts up-to-date and using long and complex passwords, still it'll help you to limit the damage to one site only.
JailHost in Cloud Website Hosting
We’ve included JailHost for all cloud website hosting plans, so you will be able to protect all of your sites with just a few clicks in your Hepsia Control Panel. The feature isn't 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 the other websites is really simple. Unlike some other Control Panels where the vast majority of domains have their files in the exact same main folder, all domains and subdomains in Hepsia have their very own folders, making the control and the protection of multiple Internet sites easier. In the unfortunate scenario of a site getting hacked, your other Internet sites will be safe and we always have multiple daily backups for the infected one, which means that we can restore it to its initial state within minutes.
