E-commerce security protects customer accounts, transaction integrity and the information used to operate the store. It requires controls across the site, payment integration and the people with administrative access.
Use appropriate access restrictions, authentication and software maintenance. Keep payment data handling within the scope of the chosen payment service and applicable requirements. An external payment provider does not remove every responsibility from the merchant.
Test account recovery and incident response as well as the purchase path. Limit access to customer records and review administrative activity. Work with the payment provider and qualified specialists when determining the controls required for the actual integration.
