What concrete measures are there that all e-commerce managers should take to try to ensure and create safe and secure e-commerce.<\/p>\n<h3><br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/>Common defects<\/h3>\n<p>According to Jonas Lejon, the most common shortcomings today are a lack of maintenance and updates of e-commerce platforms and weak passwords. If the platform is not updated regularly, it can become vulnerable to attacks and if passwords are weak, it is easy for cybercriminals to access sensitive information.<\/p>\n<h3><br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/>Concrete measures<\/h3>\n<p>To avoid these shortcomings and protect the company and customers, there are several concrete measures that should be taken;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li>Update the e-commerce platform regularly: Ensure that the platform is updated on an ongoing basis to reduce the risk of security breaches. This includes checking that backups are carried out continuously and that all files, including databases, are protected.<\/li>\n<li>Have ready-made procedures in place for incidents: Prepare for possible attacks by having clear processes and procedures for handling incidents. This includes having a plan for congestion attacks and other types of attacks.<\/li>\n<li>Review password management: Strengthen password management by implementing strong passwords and regularly updating them. This should also include two-factor authentication for added security.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure to always have updated https certificates. This means that the communication between your site and the server is encrypted and secure.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/>In conclusion, it is also good to stay up-to-date in cyber security. Feel free to follow developments regularly, to understand what risks exist.
