What security modules are required for online store?

I am using Prestashop for online store, just wondering what security modules everyone else has installed for security.

I have none installed at the moment, a not secure icon appears next to my website in Chrome Capture.JPG.697b8d217eeee5a937cfeb332536bd00.JPG

No security modules are required. The message in your browser is saying, that you are not using https, so your site is insecure. This means that between the browser request and the answer of your server it is possible to hack the connection (man in the middle attack). HTTP protocol is a not encrypted communication. For to run HTTPS protocol (encrypted communication) you need an SSL certificate for your domain on your server.

Thank you for the reply, I tried to enable SSL but it is grayed out, I am using 1.7.6.2Capture2.JPG.de992b6e6694a672b90cfbbb0cda9844.JPG
