DTC & Online Brand App Security — Grow Fast Without Breaking (or Leaking)

Direct-to-consumer brands move fast: custom Shopify apps, AI-built landing pages, quiz funnels, subscription logic, custom checkouts. Every one of those touches customer PII and payment data, and a viral moment sends traffic that a fragile build can't take. Speed is your edge — and your exposure. We secure and scale the custom, AI-built parts of your DTC stack so growth doesn't become a liability.

DTC & Online Brands

The DTC-Specific Risks

Every custom part of your stack — the parts that make your brand feel different — is also the part an AI builder didn't harden. Here's where it shows.

Custom Checkout & Subscription Logic

This is where PCI risk and revenue bugs live — coupons, subscriptions, and trials trusted from the client get abused. Fines for PCI non-compliance reach per month.

Customer PII & Privacy Law

Selling to EU customers brings data-privacy obligations on the information you collect. AI-built funnels tend to over-collect and under-protect, gathering more than they need and locking none of it down.

Scale Spikes

An influencer drop or an ad that pops can 50× your traffic in an hour. AI-built data layers and third-party wiring buckle exactly then — and can trigger runaway hosting bills on top of the outage.

App & Plugin Sprawl

Custom Shopify apps and third-party integrations widen your attack surface with every add-on. Each one is a fresh set of credentials and permissions nobody's reviewed since launch day.

FAQ

I use Shopify's built-in checkout — am I still at risk?

Shopify secures its own checkout, but your custom apps, funnels, and integrations aren't automatically compliant or secure just because they sit on Shopify. Those custom pieces are exactly what we audit.

A launch once crashed my store — is that preventable?

Yes. Load testing, plus fixing the data-layer bottlenecks that choke under a traffic spike, prevents it from happening again on the next drop or feature.

Can a quiz or funnel really put customer data at risk?

Yes — AI-built funnels often collect more personal data than they need and have no clean way to delete it on request. We scope down what's collected and add a proper deletion path.

Will fixing this slow down how fast we can ship?

No. We work inside your existing stack and process. The fixes go in around how you already build and launch, not instead of it.

What does the free scan check?

We look at checkout and subscription logic, PII handling across your funnels, exposed API tokens, and how your stack holds up under a sudden traffic spike.

What does this cost?

The scan is free. A full audit starts, scoped to exactly what the scan finds.
