Securing Your Online Store: A Complete Guide
Security is non-negotiable for e-commerce. A single breach can destroy customer trust and your business. Here's how TorScript keeps your store safe.
SSL/HTTPS Everywhere
Every page of your store should load over HTTPS. TorScript's .htaccess automatically redirects HTTP to HTTPS, ensuring all data is encrypted in transit.
CSRF Protection
Cross-Site Request Forgery attacks trick users into performing unwanted actions. TorScript includes CSRF token verification on every form and API endpoint.
SQL Injection Prevention
All database queries use prepared statements with parameterized inputs. The .htaccess also blocks common SQL injection patterns at the server level.
XSS Protection
All user input is sanitized with htmlspecialchars() before display. Security headers (X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, X-XSS-Protection) add additional protection.
Rate Limiting
Login pages implement rate limiting to prevent brute force attacks. After 5 failed attempts, the account is temporarily locked.
PCI DSS Compliance
TorScript never stores credit card data. All payment processing happens directly with Stripe, PayPal, or Revolut, keeping you PCI DSS SAQ A compliant.
Regular Backups
Always maintain regular database and file backups. Set up automated daily backups through your hosting provider.
