We are introducing VTEX Shield, a solution that provides additional and customizable layers of security for your store, complementing the standards already guaranteed by VTEX's security certifications and practices.

With VTEX Shield, you can obtain access to advanced features to detect potential risks and proactively adopt preventive measures. Check out how each feature can strengthen your store's protection.

Security Monitor

Security Monitor is a powerful dashboard tool in the VTEX Admin. It detects security threats related to the behavior of admin users and incorrect settings.

This feature actively monitors internal and external threats and notifies store administrators in the event of discoveries, allowing you to manage your store's security with agility and precision.

Penetration tests

Stores using VTEX Shield have an exclusive advantage: prior permission to conduct penetration tests. These tests simulate cyberattacks to assess your store's security, allowing you to identify and correct vulnerabilities. This guarantees protection against emerging threats.

Although the tests are conducted by your own team or by specialized third parties, you can count on the expert support of the VTEX Security team. Our team offers an in-depth analysis of the test reports, providing practical recommendations to further strengthen your store's security.

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

The WAF is an essential line of defense that monitors and filters internet traffic in real time to block external threats such as DDoS attacks and SQL injections.

With customizable settings, the WAF adapts to the specific needs of your store, ensuring that only legitimate traffic reaches the site. Learn more about this feature and the threats blocked in Web Application Firewall (WAF).

Data Protection Plus

Data Protection Plus offers an advanced data protection architecture, with an extra layer of security for personal or sensitive information. For more details, access the set of guides for the Data Protection Plus category in the Developer Portal.

Currently, this feature is only available in certain regions. If you have any questions, please contact Sales Support.
