Magento, a popular e-commerce platform handling over $100 billion annually, is increasingly targeted by hackers due to its widespread use and the sensitive payment information it processes. A study of the world's largest Magento stores revealed that 23% are making significant security mistakes, such as not using HTTPS by default and exposing admin panels, which leaves them vulnerable to attacks. Experts from agencies like Divante and Vaimo emphasize the importance of keeping platforms updated, securing admin panels, and being cautious with third-party applications, which are often not security-tested. As consumers grow more aware of online security risks, it's vital for retailers to maintain trust by implementing robust security measures. This includes educating internal teams on security practices and adopting a proactive, long-term strategy that aligns with regulations like GDPR, as security is an ongoing challenge requiring continuous monitoring and improvement.
