Installation

composer require sansec/magento2-module-shield
bin/magento setup:upgrade
bin/magento config:set sansec_shield/general/license_key <your license key>
bin/magento sansec:shield:sync-rules

Configuration

You can configure your license key and other settings via System → Configuration → Security → Sansec Shield.

Testing & live reports

Test it by visiting your store and add ?SANSEC-SHIELD-TEST to your URL, it should give you "permission denied". You'll see your first blocked attack appear instantly on your Shield Dashboard. If you do not want reports, you can disable it with:

bin/magento config:set sansec_shield/general/report_enabled 0

You can always view detailed logs in var/log/sansec_shield.log.

See for FAQs our Shield guide.

Cron

Shield rules update automatically through the standard Magento cron mechanism. If you are running a standard cron setup (bin/magento cron:run), no further action is required.

If you only run specific cron groups (bin/magento cron:run --group <group name>), make sure to include a cron for the sansec group as well.

You can verify Shield rules sync every 5 minutes in var/log/sansec_shield.log.
