3 Reasons Why Magento Sites got Hacked:

1. Draw attention to oneself / Defacing

  • What the hacker do ?         
    Generally the hacker damages the landing page or erased the records.
  • How this hacking take place ?         
    This hacking happens due to powerless passwords in an Admin range, FTP, or different means. However, the database is frequently not influenced.
  • In these types of hacking, the messages are unpleasant and mocking. It's often not in any case individual or directed toward you or your association.
  • To prevent this, AAlogics Magento Support team suggest their clients to limit their sites from a couple of nations where they are unrealistic to have clients.

2. Damage the server / Phishing site

For this situation, the programmer doesn't generally do anything to your Magento site, however makes a file some place on your site. They may have an email that is conveyed to individuals requesting that they sign into their Facebook, PayPal or Banking Website. Also, when they do, it takes their username and passwords, and after that sends this data out to an alternate server.    
On the other hand, they are attempting to utilize a portion of your site to deliver spam email messages. This is generally brought on by having files on your site set to 777 authorizations - implying that anybody can openly compose records to a server.

3. Taking Valuable Information Like Credit Card Information

What do almost all Magento sites have in like manner? They take online installments and store client data. Presently Magento is generally extremely secure, and a PCI compliant payment gateway, (for example, PayPal Pro or Authorize.net) never for the most part stores Mastercard data on a site. Even so, the previous couple of weeks, we've seen various distinctive adventures on Magento destinations where a couple documents have been adjusted to save client data and charge card information, including CVV2 codes, expiration dates and more and then allow someone to download the file for later use.

We've witnessed this through:

  • Catalogs that have open access (i.e. CHMOD 777, for example, a picture upload catalog.
  • Other outsider frameworks that are on a site, but not part of a Magento site. For instance, they may have a WordPress blog on the website that is unsecured, and the hacker got along these lines and after that infect the Magento website from an alternate directory.
  • Fake extensions that are placed into the Magento Module directory. If the right type of a file is placed in the downloads directory on a site, Magento will often try to run this and to install the module. We've seen fake company names associated with the extensions, including some of the more demanding Magento modules out there.

4. Hacking for Ransom (Kidnapping your Magento Store)

This kind of hacking block the site owner from using their own site until the amount of money is paid to the hacker. In this, the hacker uses a malicious software and encrypt the website's code. The ransomware typically request payment in a hard, such as bitcoin.
