										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As a business owner, you&#8217;re constantly juggling multiple responsibilities. You’re managing operations, growing your customer base, and ensuring everything runs smoothly. With so much on your plate, it&#8217;s easy for your website to fall to the bottom of your priority list. Neglecting website maintenance can cause major issues. These range from security vulnerabilities to poor functionality, which could harm your business.</p>
<p>Moreover, in Singapore, website maintenance is no longer just important—it’s a must-have. The <a href="https://www.pdpc.gov.sg/overview-of-pdpa/the-legislation/personal-data-protection-act" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Personal Data Protection Act</a> (PDPA), which has become more stringent since its introduction in 2012, requires businesses to ensure their websites are up to date to protect customer data. Failing to comply not only risks hefty fines but can also severely damage your business&#8217;s reputation. In today&#8217;s fast-paced digital landscape, keeping your website maintained is just as vital as any other aspect of your business.</p>
<p>But don’t worry if this sounds overwhelming. In this blog, we’ll explain what PDPA is and why keeping your website in line with its requirements is essential. By the end, you’ll have a clear picture of why maintaining your website is not just a good practice, but a necessity for staying compliant. Ready to get started?</p>

<p>Doing business online makes things easier and more convenient for you and your customers, but the internet comes with risks. Throughout the years, cyber threats of varying effectiveness have gained notoriety among online communities. If you are an eCommerce leader or someone handling their own website, you need protection against ransomware and other malware.</p>
<p>Ransomware is a cyber threat that encrypts files to make them unusable or prevents a user from accessing their computer. The ones behind a ransomware attack usually demand money from the user so the latter could access the files or computer again — hence the name. Situations like this will cause considerable damage to your website and in turn, your online business operations. In this article, we share 7 ways to protect your team from ransomware.</p>

<p>The Covid-19 pandemic has caused a drastic change in the lifestyle and habits of consumers. Spending more time indoors whether due to necessity or not has driven more consumers towards online shopping. E-commerce is taking over the market at a shocking rate. The e-commerce market penetration rate more than doubled during the first quarter of 2020, a feat that could have taken 10 years[1] if not for the Covid-19 outbreak. Out of those hundreds of thousands of e-commerce websites, Magento is the chosen CMS platform for almost 10%. Big brands like Nike, Coca Cola or Ford are good ambassadors for this content management system.</p>
<p>In comparison to other popular eCommerce platforms like WooCommerce or Shopify, Magento offers a strong advantage with its built-in security features. Magento 2 offers businesses a robust eCommerce solution. Security is a crucial part of any online business and hence Magento continues to deliver countermeasures against multiple security breaches. In this article, we share some simple yet useful tips to help you protect your e-store against cyber-attacks.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The internet and its growth over the years have led to a new avenue for a crime. Cybercrime is so rampant that in the UK, it accounts for over 50% of criminal activity. According to the University of Maryland, computers and networks are attacked at least once every 39 seconds. Another statistic from Imperva’s 2019 Cyberthreat Defense Report states that 78% of the organizations that were surveyed were affected by a successful cyberattack in 2018.</p>
<p>With a threat as constant and persistent as cyber-attacks, website security is an absolute must.</p>
<p>One of the most common kinds of cyber attacks is the brute force attack, which was said by SC magazine, a cyber-security source, to have increased by 400% in 2017. This alarming number makes brute force attacks one of the top priority cybercrimes to be wary of.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the recent weeks, the Verz Design team had discovered that malicious entities are abusing a feature built on our clients’ Magento eCommerce websites for fraudulent acts.</p>
<p>We’ve learned that these attackers visited online shops and exploit the site’s PayPal Express integration feature to check the validity of a stolen payment card for illegal use. Other websites had also reported similar instances wherein hundreds of 0$ transactions on Magento 2.1.x and 2.2.x stores were initiated to verify a card’s details.</p>
<p>Reports say that these hackers come from online cybercrime forums wherein someone will buy a stolen credit card for a substantial amount of price. Which is why they would first test a card’s information before having it sold.</p>
