How secure is your Web Shop?
Successful hackers, who usually operate internationally, primarily exploit vulnerabilities that are relatively easy to eliminate. For example, they include the following:
- outdated software versions and missing security updates
- deficient or insecurely programmed Web Shops or Web applications
- incorrectly installed applications and systems
- use of standard system settings and passwords
- activated unnecessary system services
- missing or inadequate technical security concepts
- insufficient network security or inadequate network segmentation

For More Security. More Confidence. More Sales.Internet Crime – A Real Danger
Owners of classic retail stores invest a lot of time and money in protecting their property and that of their customers. No one would ever think of not protecting his store and property and just count on the honesty of his fellow human beings or on his own good fortune.
Although the fraud and damage potential is also extremely high in the Internet, this risk remains abstract for many Web Shop operators. They hope that they are too small and uninteresting for the frequently internationally operating and extremely well-organized criminals and underestimate their automated attacks. They trust in the ultimately nonbinding promises of their technical Web Shop operator and frequently neglect even the simplest of security measures. The consequences can be very serious:
- theft of confidential information such as credit card data, customer data or business secrets
- data loss through unauthorized deletion
- addition or change of Web Shop contents (prices, products, product descriptions, images etc.)
- loss of insurance coverage because required security measures had not been taken
- image loss with customers, employees, suppliers, business partners, banks and the public
- Web Shop downtime caused by disconnection from the Internet to minimize or eliminate damage
- claims for damages of customers, banks and suppliers
What would you think of a retailer who didn't know anything about the security of his store and said that “the subject was too complicated”?
