Hello everyone, today am going to talk about security on HIVE, this will be very important to our newcomer's. In every thing we do here, keeping safe our account is what matters most, securing your keys, securing your account and securing your wallet from hackers.
Let's rush down to tip, things needed to be done to keep our account safe from hackers.
For our hive account and keys to be safe, I think saving our key file to our disk and backing it up to the cloud storage, I think this will be the best and safer place for our keys
TIPS TO SECURE OUR KEYS ON CLOUD OR OUTSIDE CLOUD
when creating a cloud account, make sure to create a strong password using the combination of alphabet, numbers and symbols. Do not share to yourself on email rather use a password management app.
keep PC or phone updated: Older version of OS contains weak security, which means updated version of OS grants stronger security.
Enable encryption on device (PC or phone) when using a cloud storage. This will give you easy access if device is lost.
NOTE: When choosing a cloud service, choose the one that enables encryption.Using two factor verification: This will ask you to enter your finger print or a security code before having access to your files.
Using an Antivirus software or activation firewall (for PC users) will help to protect you from hackers.
Keep your account safe
