Protect Your Store. Secure Payments. Keep Customers Safe.

E-commerce platforms handle payment data, customer PII, and high-value transactions -making them prime targets. We test your storefront, checkout flows, APIs, and infrastructure for vulnerabilities that put your business and customers at risk.

Threat Landscape

Why This Industry Is Targeted

The sectors and verticals we protect in this space.

Online retail and marketplaces Subscription commerce (DTC brands) Shopify, WooCommerce, and Magento stores Custom-built e-commerce platforms B2B wholesale platforms Digital goods and SaaS storefronts

E-commerce businesses face a barrage of attacks targeting payment flows, customer accounts, and inventory systems. Magecart-style attacks inject malicious JavaScript into checkout pages to skim credit card data. Account takeover campaigns target customer login systems with credential stuffing. Coupon and discount abuse exploits business logic flaws to drain revenue. Supply chain attacks through third-party plugins (payment gateways, analytics, chat widgets) introduce vulnerabilities that store owners never see. PCI-DSS compliance is mandatory for any business handling payment data, and non-compliance can result in fines of $5,000 to $100,000 per month from card brands.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a pentest for my Shopify store?
Shopify handles payment processing securely, but your custom theme code, third-party apps, API integrations, and custom checkout extensions can introduce vulnerabilities. If you are using custom development, headless commerce, or third-party plugins, a security assessment is strongly recommended.
What is Magecart and should I be worried?
Magecart is a collection of attack groups that inject malicious JavaScript into e-commerce checkout pages to steal payment card data in real time. If your store uses any third-party scripts (analytics, chat, payment widgets), you are potentially vulnerable. Our testing includes client-side security analysis to detect these attack vectors.
Can you test our checkout flow without processing real payments?
Yes. We use test payment credentials, sandbox environments, and controlled test accounts. We validate the security of the checkout logic, payment API calls, and session management without touching live payment data.
How do you test for coupon and discount abuse?
We test for multiple application of discount codes, race conditions in coupon redemption, coupon code brute-forcing, price manipulation through API parameter tampering, and logic flaws that allow stacking discounts beyond intended limits.
Does our payment processor handle PCI compliance for us?
Your payment processor (Stripe, PayPal, Square) handles their own PCI compliance, but you are still responsible for the security of your application and the environment where cardholder data flows. If card data touches your servers -even briefly -you have PCI obligations. A penetration test helps determine your actual exposure.
