Protecting your digital wallet and preventing unauthorized access or transactions requires special care and attention. Here are a few things you can do to make sure your wallet and cryptocurrencies remain secure:
- Enable 2-factor authentication (2FA): this can involve using a code generated by your mobile phone to access your wallet.
- Keep your passwords secure: create strong passwords with upper and lower-case letters, numbers and special characters.
- Back up your data regularly: make sure to store your passwords, private keys and other information related to your wallet in a safe place and regularly backup any online wallets.
- Keep your internet secure: use anti-virus software and firewalls on any device that you access your wallet from.
- Be careful of phishing attempts: always be suspicious of email links, website pop-ups and other messages asking you to enter or reveal sensitive information.
