GoPlus Security Team: In order to better understand and manage the security status of their wallets, users can take the following detailed measures.
1. Regularly check authorization
1. Use authorization management tools
• With authorization management tools: With some common authorization management tools, users can regularly check authorized smart contracts. These tools can help users list all authorized contracts and mark those that are not frequently used or may pose risks.
• Contract Risk Assessment: Use these tools to perform risk assessments on contracts, review the security and history of contract code, and identify potential risks.
2. Cancel unnecessary authorization:
• Easy to cancel authorization: Through the authorization management tool, users can easily cancel the authorization of contracts that are no longer needed. This not only reduces potential security risks, but also prevents malicious contracts from using authorized permissions to operate.
• Regular maintenance: Perform authorization maintenance regularly to keep the authorization list concise and secure, and ensure that only necessary contracts have permissions.
2. Wallet Monitoring
1. Use monitoring tools
• Real-time monitoring: Use some wallet monitoring tools, such as Etherscan’s address monitoring service and GoPlus’ security monitoring tool, to monitor wallet activities in real time. This way, users can receive timely reminders when authorization changes, abnormal transactions, address poisoning or other security incidents occur.
• Detailed reports: These monitoring tools typically provide detailed reports and logs that record all wallet activities for easy review and analysis by users.
2. Customized Alerts
• Set alert parameters: Set custom alerts based on transaction amount, frequency, and other parameters. Users can define different types of alerts, such as large transaction alerts, frequent transaction alerts, authorization change alerts, etc.
• Timely response: Once an alert is triggered, users should check and take necessary measures in time to prevent further losses. These alerts can be sent to users via email, SMS or in-app notifications.
3. Other safety measures
1. Regular backup and recovery
• Back up your private keys and mnemonics: Back up your wallet’s private keys and mnemonics regularly and store them securely in multiple locations, such as offline storage devices, encrypted USB drives, or paper backups. Make sure the backups are not accessible to unauthorized personnel.
• Test the recovery process: Regularly test the wallet’s recovery process to ensure that the wallet can be quickly and effectively restored when needed. This includes importing private keys or mnemonics, restoring the full functionality of the wallet, and verifying that the restored wallet can be used normally.
2. Use a hardware wallet
• Security of hardware wallets: Use hardware wallets to store large assets. Hardware wallets can provide higher security because their private keys never leave the device, preventing them from being stolen by hackers.
• Update firmware regularly: Make sure your hardware wallet’s firmware is kept up to date. Manufacturers regularly release security updates and patches to address the latest security threats.
