Security Audit for online stores and marketplaces

When you run an offline store you take for granted that it must be equipped with security cameras, alarms, anti-theft devices, and security guards. But when we speak about online stores and hypermarkets, only few entrepreneurs consider investments into eCommerce site security from the very beginning of their business.

At the same time we all know that customers are expected to give you a significant amount of their data to make purchases from your store - names, addresses, credit card numbers. Don't wait till hackers attack your website. Check the project for vulnerabilities and penetration risks before you face real problems.

What might happen if your website gets hacked?

Worst-case scenario. Due to a hack you can lose your entire project, customers and business reputation.

Hoster blocking

If your hosting provider detects malicious code during a scheduled check, they might block access to the site. Visitors will see the 503 error status instead of the storefront.

Online stores process sensitive data of customers. No need to tell what happens if due to the actions of hackers, this information falls into the hands of fraudsters.

Fines&courts

Low load speed, incomplete checkout, unauthorized advertisements, redirects to external resources, and this is only the beginning of the list.

Malfunction of website

Website disabled or deleted

Block from search engines

If search engines detect security risks they usually place a warning Not secure, this will negatively affect the attendance.

Am I at risk?

Some business owners and unfortunately even webmasters believe that hackers are only interested in highly visited and popular Internet projects. We hasten to disappoint you. In practice we see that unsecured web projects, even with low traffic can be attractive to hackers. So if you neglect security measures, your online store or marketplace is under the threat of hacking and infectioт no matter the size.
