Protect your Crypto Assets
Now that you’ve decided to dive into the Crypto world, you’ll want to ensure that your assets are protected.
Here are some simple solutions to get you started on the right track:
Step 1: Download the Brave Browser
Based on their website, Brave stops online surveillance, loads content faster, and uses 35% less battery. Using a browser like this when you surf the internet will help protect your data and privacy. You may download Brave at brave.com.
Step 2: Get a Free Proton Mail Account
Proton Mail gives you an anonymous, encrypted email. No personal information is required to create your secure email account. By default, they do not keep any IP logs that can be linked to your anonymous email account. Your privacy comes first. You can get your free account at protonmail.com.
Step 3: Install an Authentication App on Your Desktop and Phone
I personally like the Twilio Authy app for this purpose because you can access this app from your phone and desktop. This gives you extra encrypted security to protect your accounts from hackers. It has a 2-Step verification called - 2FA (2 Factor Authentication). For more information on 2FA: https://authy.com/what-is-2fa/
Step 4: Store your passwords in a Password Manager
Step 5: Write it down in a good old paper notebook
Step 6: Use a Virtual Private Network (VPN) app
Step 7: Encrypt your Communication and Storage
Step 8: Have a Good Backup Strategy (3-2-1)
