Features of the Magento Security Extension
Protecting Magento from malicious actions and brute force attacks is crucial for maintaining a safe environment for customers. Magento Security Checker makes that possible.
Protect Your Store From Spam and Hackers
Although Adobe releases new security patches regularly, hackers never stop coming up with new ways of breaching your security.
That’s why your store is never 100% secure. Unless you constantly monitor it for vulnerabilities and eliminate potential risks.
Doing that is much easier with the Magento 2 Security Extension. Just enable a few options and get regular updates on all security issues, admin actions or unauthorized login attempts.
Eliminate Any Security Vulnerabilities
You never know what exactly undermines your store security. It could be one little thing or a multitude of them.
Stop guessing! Get all potential risks and vulnerabilities under control with the extensive Magento Security Check.
Get detailed instructions on what to fix and where to avoid critical and minor issues. Make sure your store is always protected with Magefan Security Extension.
Detect Malicious Files in Your System
Hackers often plant malicious scripts hidden deep in your system, waiting for the right time. Make sure that time never comes with the Magento 2 Security Scanner.
Scan your store for suspicious code patterns or potentially dangerous files regularly.
Detect threads early and clear your store of hidden malware before it is executed.
Keep Track of All File Changes
When it comes to Magento security, the issues are not always on the surface. Hackers can breach your security by altering critical system files. Without you noticing.
Our Magento Security Checker won’t let that happen. It scans all your files for modification as often as you want it to.
Get notified about all edited, added or deleted files in your system. Spot and eliminate any possible threats before they harm your store.Monitor All Admin Activities
Having a system managed by multiple admin users makes it hard to trace down who caused the damage. But it doesn’t have to be.
Use the Magento Security Extension to track every action users take in your admin panel. Get a full picture of all backed activities or choose what changes you’d like to track.
View details about each viewed, edited, created or deleted page and correct the mistakes faster.
Protect Against Fake Customer Attacks
There is no limit to the malicious actions hackers resort to to harm your store. One of the most “innocent” ones is the fraudulent customers with fake emails.
But that’s not a problem for the Magento 2 Security Checker.
Enable the real-time layered email verification to allow only valid email addresses to sign in. Just specify the fraudulent emails you want to block, and leave the rest to the module.
Track Unauthorized Login Attempts
Preventing fraudulent users from logging in on the frontend is one thing. Knowing who tried to log into your admin panel is completely different.
Prevent any malicious actions and brute force attacks with a robust Security Extension for Magento.
Get details on every authorised, failed or successful login attempt about:
- - who logged into your admin
- - where the login attempt was made from
- - when did the login happen
