Magento may be the most popular eCommerce platform out there, but this also means it’s the focus of the greatest number of attacks from hackers trying to get their hands on customer information, find targets for spam or conduct phishing campaigns.

That’s why keeping your Magento store safe and secure is so vital. And Full English are at hand to help you do just that, by running a free health check on your Magento site to highlight any vulnerabilities that could put the safety of your shop at risk. Once we know the risks, we can help you fix them, get your store performing at its best, and put your mind at rest.

From the outside, your shop might look perfectly fine. But if you know how and where to look for the cracks, you might be surprised to discover the seemingly small issues which could lead to much bigger problems. Magento releases upgrades and security patches when they discover vulnerabilities in the system, but sometimes stores fail to keep on top of these updates, leaving their websites at greater risk of attack. To assess your store’s security status, the Full English Magento Health Check can scan for the following issues:

Out of Date

We’ll see if your current version of Magento is up to date. Each new version releases security fixes, so it’s important to be on the latest version available.

Cacheleak Vulnerability

Misconfigured web servers can leak cache files containing database passwords and sensitive information. We’ll make sure protection is fully activated.

Admin Safety

The default Magento admin path is /admin. This means hackers can easily find those pages and attack. We will check to see if you are yet to rename your admin location or if it’s something too recognisable and advise how to correct that.

Shoplift Security Patch

Your shop is full data which you and your customers want to keep safe. We’ll check you’ve got the relevant patch installed to reduce the risk of hackers taking control of your shop and accessing all this information.

Protect Development Files

/dev directories are not protected by default, meaning sensitive information and passwords may be accessible to outsiders via this route. We’ll make sure these files are locked up safe and secure.

Once we’ve run a check on all these things (and more!), we’ll let you know how Full English can address any fixes that will help keep your shop safe, and your customers happy. Interested in a free Full English Magento Heath Check? Please get in touch.
