PrestaShop Security Hardening
Protect your store, your customers, and your revenue from cyber threats
eCommerce Stores Are Prime Targets — Is Yours Protected?
PrestaShop stores handle payment data, personal information, and customer accounts. That makes them high-value targets for automated attacks, card skimming scripts, brute force bots, and SQL injection exploits. A single breach can result in stolen customer data, GDPR fines, payment processor penalties, and irreparable reputational damage.
I provide a complete security audit and hardening service — identifying real vulnerabilities in your specific store configuration, not just running a generic scanner and handing you a report.
Signs Your Store May Already Be Compromised
If any of these apply to you, act immediately
Unknown Admin Accounts
Accounts in your back office you didn't create are a clear sign of unauthorized access.
Unexplained File Changes
Modified PHP files, new files in unexpected directories, or unfamiliar scripts.
Customer Card Fraud Reports
If customers report fraudulent charges after buying from you, your checkout may have a skimmer.
Google Safe Browsing Warning
A red "Dangerous Site" warning from Google means malware has been detected on your store.
Spam Emails Sent From Your Domain
Your server sending spam is a sign it's been used as a relay by an attacker.
Payment Processor Suspended Your Account
Stripe, PayPal, or your bank froze your account due to suspicious activity or chargebacks.
