Payment Security & Platform Architecture

At Bénieller, the protection of customer data is a core engineering priority. Our online store is built on WooCommerce, a globally trusted e‑commerce framework that operates on top of WordPress. This architecture provides a secure, modular, and continuously updated environment designed to safeguard sensitive information throughout the entire purchasing process.

Secure E‑Commerce Infrastructure

WooCommerce is developed following industry‑standard security practices and is supported by a large ecosystem of security researchers, developers, and auditors. Its architecture includes:

  • Hardened codebase regularly reviewed and updated
  • Strict input validation to prevent injection attacks
  • Secure REST API endpoints
  • Compatibility with enterprise‑grade security plugins and firewalls

By leveraging WooCommerce, our platform inherits a robust security foundation that is continuously maintained and improved.

Encrypted Data Transmission (SSL/TLS)

All communication between your browser and our website is protected using SSL/TLS encryption. This ensures that:

  • Personal information is transmitted securely
  • Payment details cannot be intercepted or altered
  • Data integrity is preserved end‑to‑end

Our SSL certificates are kept up to date and configured following modern cryptographic standards.

PCI‑Compliant Payment Processing

Bénieller does not store or process raw credit card information on our servers.
Instead, all payments are handled through PCI DSS–compliant payment gateways, which provide:

  • Tokenized transactions
  • Encrypted card handling
  • Advanced fraud‑detection systems
  • Secure authentication workflows

This architecture ensures that sensitive financial data never touches our infrastructure, significantly reducing risk and exposure.

Secure Hosting & Server Hardening

Our hosting environment follows strict security controls, including:

  • Regular OS‑level security patches
  • Web application firewalls (WAF)
  • Malware scanning and intrusion detection
  • Enforced strong authentication for administrative access

These layers work together to protect the platform from unauthorized access and malicious activity.

Continuous Monitoring & Updates

We maintain an active security posture through:

  • Real‑time monitoring of system activity
  • Automated vulnerability scanning
  • Immediate deployment of WooCommerce and WordPress security updates
  • Routine audits of plugins, themes, and dependencies

This ensures that our platform remains aligned with the latest security standards and best practices.

Your Data, Protected by Design

Every component of our e‑commerce system — from the checkout process to the server infrastructure — is designed with security in mind. By combining WooCommerce’s proven architecture with modern encryption, certified payment gateways, and continuous monitoring, we ensure a safe and reliable shopping experience for every customer.

If you have questions about our security practices or how we protect your information, our team is always available to assist.
