Safely managing your seller account

As an entrepreneur, you have a lot to think about – so you'd rather not worry about the security of your systems and data. This includes the use of passwords, your employees' access to different systems, and customer data, for example. We also refer to the security of these as IT security.

For your seller account, IT security is well-arranged. However, it's still important to manage it properly. How can you do this? It's important to take the time to identify and assess risks, and where necessary, to establish policies and take measures.

Safe business practices also mean knowing exactly what you need to secure and how to start. For Dutch entrepreneurs, the government has established the Digital Trust Center. Belgian entrepreneurs can consult Centre for Cyber Security Belgium.

Finally, awareness of online security throughout your entire company is also important. This includes how to handle phishing emails, secure passwords, and not sharing accounts. At the Fraude Helpdesk, you can report fraud and find various resources to make your webshop more resilient against fraud.
