OpenCart Extension

Security Suite for OpenCart

Antivirus and security for OpenCart stores. Find malware, injected code and blacklist warnings, and protect the administrator login.

Last Update: 14 Oct 2026
Version: 4.0.1
Compatibility: OpenCart 3.0.3+ and 4.0.2+ / PHP 7.2+

Complete Website Security for OpenCart

Security Suite for OpenCart checks your store for malware, injected code and blacklist warnings, and protects the administrator area from password guessing. It is the same Security Suite that protects WordPress and Joomla websites, with the same features and the same interface, built for OpenCart 3 and OpenCart 4.

The file scan runs on the SiteGuarding servers: your files are checked against our malware database and heuristic rules, so the scan does not slow down your shop. The database scan runs on your own server and looks for spam links, hidden frames and scripts in your pages, products, categories and modules.

The administrator login gets a Google reCAPTCHA check, two-factor authentication with an authenticator app and alerts by email or Telegram. If your store is already hacked or blacklisted, our security team can clean it for you.

Main Features

  • Easy to install. Upload the package in Extensions > Installer and install the module; a "Security Suite" item appears in the admin menu.
  • Security dashboard. One protection score for six measures: file scan, database scan, blacklists, firewall, login protection and 24/7 monitoring, with a link to fix each one.
  • Server-side file scan. Your files are checked on the SiteGuarding servers against our malware database and heuristic rules; the report opens on SiteGuarding.com and a copy is sent by email.
  • Database scan. Information pages, product and category descriptions, HTML modules and store settings are checked for injected external links, hidden frames, scripts and spam words; nothing leaves your server.
  • Blacklist check. Your domain is checked with Google and more than 30 other security vendors that browsers and antivirus software use.
  • Login protection. A Google reCAPTCHA check before the administrator login and password reset pages stops automated password guessing.
  • Two-factor authentication. Each administrator can add a code from an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, 1Password and others); repeated wrong codes lock the account for 15 minutes.
  • Trusted addresses. No code is asked from the IP addresses you trust, for example your office.
  • Login log and alerts. See the recent administrator logins and get an email or Telegram message about successful logins and failed logins to existing accounts.
  • Administrator accounts review. All administrator accounts in one list, so an unknown account is easy to spot.
  • Update overview. Your OpenCart version and pending extension updates on one screen.
  • SiteGuarding firewall. With the SiteGuarding subscription our team installs the firewall that blocks SQL injection, file inclusion, web shells, malicious uploads and bad bots before they reach your store.
  • SiteGuarding dashboard. Connect your store to your SiteGuarding account for cloud monitoring and one-click malware removal requests.
  • Works behind Cloudflare and proxies. The real visitor address is read from trusted proxies only, so a visitor cannot fake it with a header.
  • Free support. Our team answers your questions by email; malware removal by our security experts is available any time.
