PrestaShop Antivirus:
scan and clean your store
Detect malware, malicious code and compromised files in one click. PrestaSecure analyzes every file in your installation and guides you toward a clean site.
What our antivirus detects
Our analysis engine is specialized in threats that target PrestaShop. This is not a generic antivirus: every rule is designed for the PrestaShop ecosystem.
Backdoors and webshells
Malicious PHP files hidden in your modules, themes or upload folders. These backdoors allow hackers to return even after a partial cleanup.
Injected and obfuscated code
Base64, eval(), gzinflate() and other obfuscation techniques used to hide malicious code in your PHP files, JavaScript or Smarty templates.
Credit card skimmers
Malicious scripts injected into checkout pages to steal your customers' credit card numbers. Detection in both PHP code and JavaScript files.
How the antivirus scan works
Full scan in one click
Launch a scan from the PrestaShop back-office or from your prestasecure.com dashboard. All your files are analyzed: core, modules, themes, uploads.
Multi-layer analysis
Each file is processed through multiple detection engines: known signatures, heuristic patterns, checksum comparison and behavioral code analysis.
Detailed report
Each detected threat is classified by severity (critical, high, medium, info). You see the affected file, the exact line and an explanation of the threat.
Guided remediation
For each infected file, PrestaSecure suggests an action: quarantine, restore to original or delete. No need to touch the code yourself.

Antivirus FAQ
-
Does the antivirus slow down my site?
No. The scan runs in the background and does not impact your store's performance. Visitors notice no slowdown during the analysis.
-
How often should I run a scan?
We recommend a daily scan, which you can automate from the module. If you suspect an infection, you can run an on-demand scan at any time.
-
Does the scan detect vulnerabilities in third-party modules?
Yes. Our database includes known vulnerabilities (CVE) for the most popular PrestaShop modules. It is updated daily via GitHub advisories and community alerts.
-
What happens when a threat is detected?
You receive an email notification with the threat details. From the dashboard, you can quarantine the file, restore it to its original version or delete it. No action is taken automatically without your approval.
-
Does the antivirus work on shared hosting?
Yes. PrestaSecure is compatible with all hosting types: shared, VPS, dedicated, cloud. The module adapts to your server's constraints (memory limits, execution time).
An antivirus built for PrestaShop
PrestaShop stores are prime targets for cybercriminals. Malicious code injection in modules, credit card theft via skimmers, backdoors hidden in upload folders — attack vectors are numerous and often undetectable without a specialized tool.
The PrestaSecure antivirus was developed exclusively to address threats targeting the PrestaShop ecosystem. Unlike generic solutions, it understands the structure of a PrestaShop installation (core, modules, themes, overrides) and can distinguish a legitimate file from a compromised one.
With integrity verification based on official checksums, CVE detection for modules, and heuristic PHP code analysis, PrestaSecure provides comprehensive coverage to secure your online store.
