With the COVID-19 outbreak, the e-commerce industry experienced significant growth, as the demand for online sales increased exponentially. With the decrease in live sales, multiple organizations, which ignored the online world or just hadn’t prioritized this marketing and sales channel before, understood the importance of e-commerce.
Nevertheless, organizations became vulnerable right after applying e-commerce tools and practices. E-commerce is, in many ways, about operating sensitive data including personal details and financial information. This fact poses specific and strict demands to cybersecurity in e-commerce — whenever a site falls victim to a global incident or clients just have the reason to doubt the protection of their data, you lose reputation and profits.
