Earlier today, Detectify’s Security Advisor Frans Rosén shared some online shopping security tips on TV4’s Nyhetsmorgon. Black Friday is closing in but unfortunately, most customers are not aware of the security risks they are exposed to.

Online retail has been around since the early days of the internet and has grown dramatically over the last two decades. To find out whether e-commerce retailers are aware of security risks, we have looked into the HTTPS configurations of 915 Swedish online stores. The results show that it is high time for e-commerce to catch up with security best practices.

The first step of running an online store is simple: do not. In the majority of cases, hosting the platform is an unnecessary headache and opting for an e-commerce-as-a-service solution can be a much better alternative. However, if you have taken the plunge and are hosting your e-commerce site yourself using one of the more popular CMS solutions, keeping your online store secure is a top priority. Being aware of the most common security mistakes in e-commerce can help you identify and prevent security issues.

In e-commerce, there is no one solution that fits every online store perfectly. When it comes to picking a platform for your online store, there are many aspects of your business that need to be taken into consideration before you can make an informed decision. In this article, we have gathered some key points that can help you decide on a platform that suits you best.

Black Friday is “scam central” and while most of the attacks in the past targeted consumers (like the Target data breach in 2013), retailers need to be prepared. An attack on one of the year’s most busy days can have serious consequences for e-commerce merchants, which is why organisations like the Retail Cyber Intelligence Center are offering members threat briefings and advice before the holiday season.
