Magento has released its brand new security scan tool that allows merchants to scan their sites for known security risks, malware and unauthorised access. Merchants will be able to receive updates from the tool in regards to their website's security status. It's a free service that's available to both Magento Commerce and Magento Open Source users, and can be run on any version. Merchants and developers can access the tool within their current Magento account, after setup. Regular updates will keep the Security Scan tool up to date with all new developments and patches, making it a useful go-to tool on a regular basis. Features of the new tool:

  • Real-time security status updates and how to fix vulnerabilities

  • Scan scheduling

  • Over 30 security tests to identify potential issues and missing patches

  • Historical reports to track progress
