Check and renew your Back Office (BO) access on a regular basis
Ensure that only users essential to your business have access, and that their passwords are complex and unique. We also recommend that you regularly change all your passwords.
Download official modules
Make sure you only download modules whose quality and security have been verified. PrestaShop recommends purchasing modules from its official marketplace, as our teams check the quality and security of every module we distribute. Our Business Care offer also ensures that the security of your modules is always up to date.
Update your store and modules
Keeping PrestaShop and its modules up to date is crucial to correcting security vulnerabilities. You can regularly review the list of vulnerabilities (CVEs) concerning community modules here: Friends-Of-Presta Security Advisories.
Delete obsolete modules
Unsupported modules represent a major risk. We strongly recommend that you uninstall them if no regular updates are available.
Traffic filtering and advanced protection
Protect your store against attacks with specific filtering rules. We strongly recommend that you implement a WAF (Web Application Firewall) to reinforce the security of your connections. Cloudflare offers a high-performance solution.
