If you host multiple websites in the same account and one of them gets hacked, it's likely that all of them will be hacked after that. There are different reasons why this may happen, the two most popular are: using very weak passwords or using outdated scripts with known weaknesses. That way, a single compromised website can do a lot of damage to all your sites, because gaining access to a single script normally allows hackers to access the hosting account. This is the reason why we have introduced a brand new security option named JailHost. Once turned on, this option will literally lock a site in its folder, so if an attacker takes over it, the remaining sites 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 will greatly reduce the damage.

JailHost in Shared Hosting

You can take advantage of JailHost with each and every shared hosting plan that we provide and protect your Internet sites against attacks fast and easy. Each domain and subdomain in the Hepsia Control Panel that is provided with our solutions has a separate folder and in contrast to what often happens with many other Control Panels, the site content is not mixed in just a single main folder, so keeping the Internet sites separate will be rather easy. Enabling JailHost for any Internet site takes just a few clicks, so even when you do not have much experience, you won't need any special skills to maintain your websites risk-free. The option is not active by default in case that you wish to use a script that requires accessibility to an additional folder inside your account. In case you use JailHost, the remaining websites that you have will be protected, but even a hacked one won't remain damaged for too long as we will have a couple of daily backup copies for it all the time, so we can quickly restore it.
