Server

  • Write permissions on the /modules and /var/logs folders.
  • No extra PHP extension or server package. Sentinel checks the PHP version, extensions, directives (memory_limit, max_input_vars…) and write permissions itself.
  • Outbound calls allowed to the Sentinel API. Without them, the vulnerability scanner and the new version notice do not work. The back office keeps working normally.

Store

  • Multistore: supported.
  • Cloudflare, reverse proxies, CDNs: declare the proxy so Sentinel reads the visitor’s real address. Cloudflare and local reverse proxies are detected, with a button to trust them in one click.
  • Several servers: each server keeps its own anti-DDoS counters, stored in local files. No extra service is required.

Extended coverage (Auto Prepend, Pro)

Included in Sentinel Pro, it also protects direct requests to PHP files, before PrestaShop starts. The module tries automatic installation through .user.ini or .htaccess, depending on the hosting. If that fails, the documentation gives the manual steps, including through php.ini. An existing auto_prepend_file is detected before anything is changed.

Two-factor authentication

Passkeys, security keys and trusted devices need the store to be served over HTTPS, directly or through a declared proxy. Authenticator apps and recovery codes work in every case.
