You&#8217;re already holding the plastic bag with the liquids in your hand. Now it&#8217;s your turn: your coat, shoes, and plastic bag go into one box. Your smartphone and notebook join the second box. Now you walk through the metal detector (luckily, no beeps!) while your two boxes slowly disappear on the conveyor belt into the X-ray machine. After a few minutes, everything is OK and you can board. What has just been described is very familiar to you. Can you imagine a similar security scenario for your emails or your login details? Your mind often stops working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IT security is a key issue in today&#8217;s society. Our workplaces are everywhere. We shop on multiple devices and use other people&#8217;s Wi-Fi networks. Who can keep track of what&#8217;s happening with all that sensitive data? In this article, we&#8217;ve compiled the most important information for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vulnerabilities_and_prevention\"><\/span><strong>Vulnerabilities and prevention<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are numerous risks you face when running an online store. It&#8217;s almost impossible to identify all vulnerabilities, but it&#8217;s still worth addressing the issue and finding out how to increase security. The biggest risks online retailers face include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Insecure passwords<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use of outdated shop systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Web server settings (if any)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Viruses and Trojans on the work computer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lack of security standards (e.g., SSL)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_tips_for_online_shop_security\"><\/span>5 tips for online shop security<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to understand the topic of security, hacking, and data theft, you should try to put yourself in the shoes of a hacker. While there is no single hacker, nor is there a single method: the basis of all attacks is the exploration of vulnerabilities. Hackers have many options for detecting such security gaps. Below, we&#8217;ll show you 5 tips for online shop security:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mausi123_Good_passwords_work_differently\"><\/span><strong>Mausi!123: Good passwords work differently<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem of passwords is often mentioned, but not always taken seriously. The most important passwords for shop operators are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Administrative access to the shop system (shop backend)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Web server access data (if available)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Database access data<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Possibly, marketplace access data (Amazon, eBay, etc.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Online banking access data<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mycommerce.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/christin-hume-mfB1B1s4sMc-unsplash-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Online Shop Sicherheit: Passwort\" class=\"wp-image-3793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mycommerce.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/christin-hume-mfB1B1s4sMc-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mycommerce.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/christin-hume-mfB1B1s4sMc-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mycommerce.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/christin-hume-mfB1B1s4sMc-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mycommerce.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/christin-hume-mfB1B1s4sMc-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mycommerce.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/christin-hume-mfB1B1s4sMc-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>A simple password, possibly including uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers, is a step in the right direction. It becomes unfortunate when convenience wins. This can manifest itself in various ways, for example, if the password is used for a variety of sites or if the content is rather generic and thus also represents <a href=\"https:\/\/www.itmagazine.ch\/artikel\/71179\/Die_200_haeufigsten_Passwoerter_im_Jahr_2019.html\">the password of numerous other people<\/a>. This is both understandable and dangerous, because it makes it easier for attackers to access various accounts. Create rules for passwords (including for employees):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>User passwords should be at least 12 characters long, and administrator passwords for system administration should be at least 16 characters long.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Passwords should contain at least uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Each account \u2013 computer login, online store, ERP, CRM, etc. \u2013 requires a unique password.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Phishing_Dont_bite\"><\/span>Phishing: Don&#8217;t bite!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Phishing emails designed to steal login credentials or install malware are unfortunately a common occurrence. Anyone can become a target of a scammer and receive fake emails or direct messages on social media urging you to click a link, download a file, or open an attachment. If you&#8217;re not careful, you could infect your device with malicious software, allowing attackers to steal your personal data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Raise awareness among yourself and your employees about the importance of being critical\u2014it&#8217;s better to ask too many questions than too few. Train employees to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisscom.ch\/en\/b2bmag\/security\/how-recognise-phishing\/\">recognise phishing emails<\/a> by highlighting typical characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"MyCOMMERCE_Tip\"><\/span>MyCOMMERCE Tip:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t publish the email address of your MyCOMMERCE account in your contact information. This may provoke phishing attacks. Always use an alternative email address for public display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Flu_in_the_system_%E2%80%93_danger_from_viruses\"><\/span><strong>Flu in the system \u2013 danger from viruses<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One shouldn&#8217;t let convenience paralyse one&#8217;s attention when it comes to the threat of viruses. A computer virus is a relatively old phenomenon. These are programs that, just like their biological counterparts, can implant themselves into a host, such as a computer system, and cause extreme damage. The colloquial term &#8220;computer viruses&#8221; also includes programs such as worms and Trojans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A classic and well-known method of acquiring such malware is opening links or attachments in emails. Malware not only poses the risk of attacking the computer or the device in question. The programs can also contain a key logger, for example, that captures inputs and forwards them to the perpetrator \u2013 which, of course, can also be used to read access data to shop or inventory management systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Foregoing opening messages purely for security reasons is hardly the right way to protect the integrity of one&#8217;s system. The key here is antivirus software or a scanner. The range is diverse, with free and very expensive models available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-ls-shiny-red-v-1-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#ec968a\">\n<p><strong>Pass-the-Hash \u2013 the No. 1 cyber attack<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you enter a password, it is stored in a database in the form of a hash and converted into a hash value. This value is then transmitted to an authentication server and compared with the hash value stored in a database. If the two values \u200b\u200bmatch, you are authenticated as a user and can access the desired content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If an attacker succeeds in capturing this hash value, they can use it to log in to other networks (they don&#8217;t need to know your actual password, since they now have the calculated value) and thus cause damage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-ls-shiny-red-v-1-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#ec968a\">\n<p><strong>Trojans \u2013 not a myth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Trojan horse, or Trojan for short, is the most common form of malware. A Trojan horse\u2014like its counterpart from Greek mythology\u2014cannot infiltrate your computer on its own; it needs your help to do so. Therefore, a Trojan horse disguises itself as something harmless (e.g., a useful program, app, or website) that you download onto your computer. Once installed, a Trojan horse can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Install other malware or a worm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use your computer for click fraud<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Give a hacker control over your device<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Force your data to hackers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HTTPS_certificates_for_your_website\"><\/span>HTTPS certificates for your website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A completely secure key to a room can be all well and good, but it&#8217;s useless if the patio door is open. In other words, encrypting the internet connection with SSL certificates. The fact that a website transmits data encrypted can be recognized by the &#8220;https:\/\/&#8221; prefix within the URL. Without encryption, however, it&#8217;s &#8220;http:\/\/&#8221; \u2013 missing the &#8220;s,&#8221; which stands for secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your MyCOMMERCE shop and MyCOMMERCE homepage are already protected with an SSL certificate. If your shop is added to your own website, you must purchase and install an SSL certificate yourself. An SSL certificate protects the data sent via your website \u2013 customer names, addresses, phone numbers, credit card details \u2013 from hacker attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Working_on_the_go_Open_Wi-Fi_for_everyone\"><\/span>Working on the go: Open Wi-Fi for everyone!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Online retailers are often predestined to be able to work on the go. They rarely use their own mobile internet data allowance, as this is quickly consumed. Public Wi-Fi hotspots are the preferred method in these cases. However, these are often unsecured network connections \u2013 recognisable by the lack of encryption or a notice in the privacy policy. If this is the case, online retailers should be cautious and avoid entering sensitive information such as login credentials, nor should they access sensitive data. This poses a risk of being spied on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the use of public Wi-Fi is unavoidable, we recommend using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). This encrypts the data transmitted between the (mobile) device and the VPN server used, essentially creating a tunnel to the server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_%E2%80%93_Online_Shop_Security\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion \u2013 Online Shop Security<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The topic of online shop security should play a very important role for shop operators. As an online retailer, you are responsible not only for your own data, but also for that of your customers. In difficult cases, such as administering a web server yourself without in-depth knowledge, consulting experts can be useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even small online retailers have various levers and switches they can use to ensure a sound IT security concept. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Finally_a_few_general_tips\"><\/span><strong>Finally, a few general tips:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Regular backups of all relevant data protect against serious consequences such as data loss.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In light of ever-changing threats, software should always be kept up to date.
