OpenCart Security and Protection

Protect your OpenCart CMS from hackers, bots, SQLi, XSS, LFI, RFI, and all possible types of attacks. Enterprise-grade ecommerce security services including firewall protection, malware removal, and continuous security monitoring for your online store.

OpenCart Antivirus

If your web store gets hacked, it will lead to bad brand reputation and ruined customer trust that takes a lot of time to be restored. OpenCart CMS is open source and a lot of webmasters use third-party plugins that may contain backdoors and viruses. Our smart antivirus provides enterprise website security to detect threats early.

OpenCart Firewall

Hackers seek to compromise a web store and add pages with SEO spam or inject malicious code into already existing pages on a site. Our OpenCart Firewall blocks all known attacks on your website and keeps your website and your customers safe and secured with advanced web protection and DDoS mitigation.

OpenCart CMS Protection

Since OpenCart is an open-source CMS, its internal code and file framework are available to the public. While it's a good thing for web developers and coders, it also means that hackers and spammers are familiar with its structure and can occasionally detect and exploit its security vulnerabilities. Corporate website protection is essential.

OpenCart Malware Removal

Our engineers will run a deep scan of your OpenCart CMS core files to isolate any infected and suspicious files from your web store. This scan will also discover any malicious files that should not be on your server. All suspicious files will be removed, and we install all security modules your website needs for complete malware removal.

Time Matters

If your OpenCart store got hacked — don't wait until it gets blacklisted. You can lose your customers, sales, and search engine positions. There is no time to wait; you should act fast with professional malware removal services!

How to Protect Your OpenCart Store

Follow these steps to prevent attacks on your website and protect customer data

  • Protect Directories

    Admin folder provides access to a website's administration, and if a hacker gains control over it, they can edit information about products and customers, modify CMS settings, or even steal sensitive customer's information. This is really important to protect the admin directory and make it impossible to get access to it.

  • File Permissions

    It is recommended to assign 444 or 644 permission types in order to prevent chances of file change or malware injection. Proper file permissions are a fundamental aspect of server-side security and help prevent unauthorized modifications to your OpenCart core files.

  • SSL Certificate

    Getting an SSL certificate will give you an extra layer of security. Your customers and visitors will know that their browsing session is safe, and the payment details and personal information is kept secure and encrypted and will never be stolen.

  • OpenCart Antivirus

    Millions of websites are getting hacked every day. Online stores have always been a target for hackers and spammers. If you really care about your customers, you have to use security modules and plugins to prevent hacker attacks and keep your data secured with continuous security monitoring.

  • Hire a Professional

    If you have never been dealing with web viruses before, it's a good idea to hire a professional who can remove all viruses from your website and close all possible backdoors. Our security experts provide comprehensive malware removal and corporate website protection services.

Pro Tip: Use Managed OpenCart Hosting

Another great option is to use a highly secured managed OpenCart hosting service. These services are a little more expensive, but they take care of the overwhelming majority of OpenCart security tasks automatically. For example, if you use one of our secured hosting packages, even if your website has been hacked, we will fix all possible issues absolutely free.
