Free security audit: check your e-commerce store in 30 seconds

Why a security audit?

Most merchants discover their store's security issues the day they get hacked. Yet the vast majority of attacks exploit known, documented vulnerabilities: outdated versions, accessible sensitive files, neglected configurations. A simple audit detects them in seconds.

What we found across 60 stores

We analyzed 60 French e-commerce stores (PrestaShop and WooCommerce) using only passive techniques: reading HTTP headers, the homepage, and probing public paths. No server access, no intrusion.

• 20 stores (33%) had at least one critical issue: accessible install directory, default admin directory, downloadable SQL backups.
• 11 stores (18%) ran on end-of-life PHP — including PHP 7.0 with no patches since 2019.
• The majority didn't send basic security headers (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, nosniff).
• One store combined end-of-life PHP 7.4, an accessible install directory and the back office under its default name: a textbook case.

What the free audit checks

After the audit?

If your score is good, you know the basics are sound — keep it that way (updates, offline backups). If it's bad, the report lists the issues and fixes in priority order. For PrestaShop stores, the PrestaShield module automates everything: malware scan, email alerts, history, PDF report.

Study conducted in August 2026 on 60 French stores from a public sample. Passive methodology: HTTP headers, public content, standard path probing.
