Security Alert: Protect Your Binance Account đšđ
Here are some simple but important steps to keep your Binance account safe from hackers:
1. **Donât Leave Extra Funds on the Exchange**
Move most of your funds to a cold wallet like Ledger Nano X. Exchanges can be hacked, and even the biggest ones are at risk. Always remember, âNot Your Keys, Not Your Coins.â
2. **Secure Your Email**
Use a different email just for your crypto accounts. Make sure it has a strong password and 2-factor authentication (2FA) to block unauthorized access.
3. **Backup Your 2FA Key**
When setting up 2FA, write down the backup key in case you lose your phone. For extra security, you can use a physical key like Yubikey.
4. **Whitelist Withdrawal Addresses**
Enable address whitelisting so that only approved addresses can withdraw funds. This adds another layer of protection in case your account is hacked.
5. **Set an Anti-Phishing Code**
Add an Anti-Phishing Code to ensure that any emails from Binance are real and not fake phishing scams.
6. **Manage Your Devices**
Regularly check and remove any old or unknown devices linked to your account to prevent unauthorized access.
7. **Keep Your Binance API Key Safe**
If you use Binanceâs API:
- Only create API keys when necessary.
- Use them only on trusted sites.
- Never allow deposit/withdrawal permissions.
- Delete unused API keys.
Follow these steps to keep your funds secure! đ
