Security and resilience for online stores

We protect your checkouts, accounts, emails and infrastructure without sacrificing the performance or availability of the store.

Context

Security should reflect how the organization works.

For e-commerce, a security issue is a quick and a revenue issue. Website, payment integrations, administration accounts, and commercial email form the same attack area.

In e-commerce, security and availability have a direct impact on revenue. Checkout, CMS, administrative accounts, payment integrations, email and providers are part of the same attack area.

The Priorities: Checkout · Availability · Admin access · Email · Recovery

Risk in e-commerce

The context of the sector helps us to separate the relevant exposure from the controls that just look good in a checklist.

01

Exploiting vulnerabilities in CMS, plugins or integrations

02

Credential stuffing and compromising administrative accounts

03

Phishing/BEC in relation to suppliers and payments

04

Downtime or data corruption in critical periods

What should be protected as a priority

The focus is built around sector-specific operations, data and dependencies, not by renaming a generic package.

01

Checkout and Public Application

WAF, DDoS protection, bot management, vulnerability management and hardening to reduce vulnerability exploitation and automated store abuse.

02

Traffic and availability

We review capacity, cache, dependencies, and recovery before major campaigns so that security doesn’t become a compromise made in times of high traffic.

03

Administrative accounts and suppliers

MFA, minimum required access, role separation and integration review reduce the risk that a single compromised account will provide extended control over the store.

04

Payments and Reduction of Risk Area

We analyze processor integration and checkout flows to limit unnecessary data exposure and to keep technical responsibilities clearly separate between the store and payment providers.

Program integrat

Performance, fraud and cyber security are not separate issues

A store can lose income both through downtime and by compromising an account, bot abuse or vulnerable integration. The program should be built around the real journey of ordering and store addictions.

01

WAF and DDoS protection without unnecessarily blocking legitimate traffic

02

Review Before Black Friday, Campaigns and Major Platform Changes

03

Hardening for accounts, CMS and critical integrations

04

Planned backup and recovery for controlled return after incident

Rezultate

What remains after the project?

We do not just pursue the delivery of documents. The goal is a clearer technical and operational posture that can beined, verified and demonstrated.

01

WAF and hardening for public application

02

Protected and monitored administrative access

03

Email/Domain Identity is Harder to Fake

04

Backup and recovery ready for quick recovery

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about E-Commerce

How do you prepare for Black Friday or other traffic peaks?

We analyze caching, origin, dependencies, rate limiting, anti-bot protection and recovery plan early on. The goal is that security and performance measures be tested before the event, not changed in a hurry on the day of the campaign.

Does ZebraByte process or store the store’s card data?

Architecture must use appropriate payment processors and integrations, and we focus on the security of the store, integration, accounts and infrastructure we control.

What type of automated attack is relevant to an online store?

Depending on the store, credential stuffing, aggressive scraping, form and checkout abuse, vulnerability scanning or DDoS traffic can occur. Controls should be calibrated on the actual behavior of the application, not just generically enabled.

Is it mandatory to migrate to ZebraByte hosting?

No. We can evaluate and secure an existing architecture if the platform allows the necessary measures. Secure managed hosting becomes relevant when operational limitations, recovery or infrastructure control justify the move.

Security and compliance in one program.

We can start with a punctual assessment, without the obligation to change existing suppliers, then we implement and operate only the measures required by scope.
