Summary

Detectify's Security Advisor Frans Rosén discussed online shopping security tips on TV4’s Nyhetsmorgon, highlighting the lack of awareness among consumers about the potential security risks they face, especially with Black Friday approaching. Research conducted by Detectify's security researcher Linus Särud revealed that over 60% of 915 Swedish online stores do not have HTTPS enabled by default, indicating a significant security concern. Throughout November, Detectify has been emphasizing e-commerce security by compiling various guides, research findings, and best practices, encouraging consumers to educate themselves on these issues through their blog series in anticipation of Black Friday shopping.
