Shouldn't All Stores Be Secure?
It is essential to have your store secure. A lot of retailers make the mistake of not taking security seriously and they end up being hacked. As a result, they lose money or their reputation, or both.
When you buy from a store like Amazon, you are trusting that the products are authentic and the store isn't going to be hacked. This is why it is so important for e-commerce stores to have strong security measures in place.
