  • Single-use recovery codes and trusted devices
  • Required, optional or not required policies, with deadlines and reminders

03 / Web Application Firewall / WAF Pro

Signature-based detection and request blocking.

Analyze storefront and back-office requests: URLs, bodies, forms, multipart, uploaded file names and headers. Detected malicious requests are rejected with HTTP 403.

  • SQL injection, including blind and SLEEP; command execution
  • Known module exploits and malicious file operations
  • Path traversal, LFI, XXE, SSTI and JNDI / Log4Shell
  • Daily signature synchronization and attack logging

With Auto Prepend, protection also covers direct requests to PHP files, before PrestaShop starts.

04 / Application-level anti-DDoS Pro

Limit abusive requests with configurable thresholds.

The limiter counts requests by IP in a sliding window. It returns HTTP 429 with Retry-After, then temporarily bans sources that exceed the thresholds.

  • Off, Monitor and On modes; Relaxed, Balanced, Strict and Custom profiles
  • Progressive bans up to 24 hours; per-network and per-path limits
  • Logged-in employees and DNS-verified crawlers exempted; payment callbacks prefilled in exclusions
  • Safety threshold if too much traffic is blocked; counters stored locally, with no extra service

Application-level HTTP protection. Volumetric attacks require suitable protection from your hosting or network provider.

05 / File integrity checks Pro

Find modified, missing or unexpected files.

Compare core and module files against their reference. Review changes in a line-by-line diff, and use exclusions for your store’s customizations.

  • PrestaShop core and module checks
  • Visual diff between the original and local files
  • .sentinelignore exclusions; check a module using its ZIP archive
  • History, CSV / JSON / TXT reports and sentinel:integrity command

Six manual checks per 24 hours, plus a daily automatic check outside that quota. Results can be emailed.

06 / Access and brute-force protection Free & Pro

Restrict administration to your team.

IP access control protects the back office, including the login page. Pro adds automatic bans for sources of repeated failed logins.

  • Free: IPv4, IPv6 and CIDR allowlists
  • Free: redirect unauthorized visitors to the storefront 404 page
  • Pro: configurable attempt threshold, time window and ban duration
  • Pro: ban management, trusted IPs shared with anti-DDoS and a blacklist

Brute-force protection targets the back office. Customers sharing a banned IP can still access the storefront.

07 / Logs and dashboard Free & Pro

Review events and their context.

A Sentinel dashboard and PrestaShop widget summarize events. Logs let you inspect requests, blocked access and login activity.

  • Free: failed logins, sensitive requests, 404s, blocked back-office access and 2FA events
  • Pro: direct PHP file access, with Auto Prepend
  • Pro: detected attacks and brute-force / anti-DDoS bans
  • Filters by date, IP, type, severity and status; sensitive data masked

Daily log rotation and seven-day retention. Review in the back office or with sentinel:logs.

08 / Configuration and production Free & Pro

Coverage that fits your installation.

Sentinel checks your environment and helps configure proxies and extended coverage. Remote services remain outside the back office’s critical path.

  • Cloudflare, reverse proxies and CDNs: trusted-proxy settings and real-IP resolution
  • Pro: assisted Auto Prepend installation and existing-conflict detection
  • Check PHP version, extensions, directives, permissions and HTTPS origin
  • Multistore, French / English interface and CLI tools

No additional PHP extension or server package required. The scanner sends component versions without customer data.
