Guide to a Strong Password Security, MFA, and Wallet Protection
Updated over a week ago

⚙️ In today's digital age, our online identities and assets are increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. To safeguard your accounts and digital assets, it's crucial to implement robust security measures.

Strong Password Practices

  • Length and Complexity: Opt for passwords with at least 12 characters, blending uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid easily guessable combinations like birthdays or names.

  • Unique Passwords: Assign distinct passwords to each of your accounts. This prevents unauthorized access in case one password is compromised.

  • Password Managers: Leverage password managers to generate, store, and autofill strong, unique passwords, simplifying your security routine.

  • Regular Updates: Periodically change your passwords to stay ahead of potential hackers.

Implementing Multi-Factor Authentication

  • Enable MFA: Activating MFA adds an extra layer of protection by requiring a second verification form beyond your password.

  • Choose Reliable Methods: Opt for secure MFA methods such as authenticator apps like Google Authenticator or Authy.

  • Backup Codes: Keep a safe copy of your backup codes to regain access if your primary MFA method becomes unavailable.

Protecting Your Wallet Key, Secret Phrase, or Seed Phrase

  • Store offline: Write down your wallet key or seed phrase on paper and store it in a secure, offline location like a fireproof safe.

  • Avoid Sharing: Never divulge your wallet key or seed phrase to anyone, regardless of the situation. Legitimate organizations will never request this information.

  • Phishing Awareness: Be vigilant and verify the authenticity of any communication related to your wallet.
