The Store Admin Protection module for OpenCart 2.x, 3.x is designed to be able to install a key and extra value to protect the admin bar URL on the login page, thereby preventing the administrative part from entering unauthorized entry.

Eliminates a clear hole, a well-known security issue for the URL in the admin bar, and prevents access to the administration area without the appropriate access key. This module adds a higher level of security to your OpenCart website. Even with the right login and password, the attacker will not gain access to the administrative part without additional value and key.

Once both fields have been installed and filled, the entry to the admin will be changed from https://domain.com/admin and is available in a new URL: https://domain.com/admin/?key=value.

It is possible to fill one of the fields, for example:

If you fill only the key box, then your admin panel will only be available at https://domain.com/admin/?key.

The key value is optional, but if you fill the field, your admin panel will only be available at https://domain.com/admin/?key=value.

Before installing and using, we recommend that you back up your site in full.
