How Do These Attacks Happen?

Magecart-style attacks occur by exploiting a vulnerability on the web server. They then either inject malicious JavaScript code into an existing file or edit the HTML of the website to call a new third-party JavaScript file that includes malicious code.
RapidSpike - Shopper enters details on website

Whilst your customers browse and purchase on your website, scripts are loaded from third parties.

If a third party is compromised, hackers then have a way to write scripts affecting your website.

Shoppers details are sent to the Magecart hacker.

Hackers can then intercept customer card details without you even noticing, siphoning them off to an external server to see on the black market.
