# Recommended Security Practices

In the world of cryptocurrencies and digital assets, security is vital to protecting investment and ensuring data privacy. As CipherAI, we want to guide our users on how they can have a safer experience not only within the platform, but also in the digital world in general. Here are some basic security practices we recommend:

1. Use Strong and Unique Passwords: Using a single password across multiple platforms is a big risk. Create different and complex passwords for each service. Password managers can help you with this.
2. Using Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): 2FA adds an extra layer of security to gain access to your account. Prefer app-based (eg Google Authenticator) authentication methods over SMS.
3. Beware of Phishing Attacks: Make sure you always visit the correct URL. Never click on suspicious email links and beware of emails that ask for a private key or password.
4. Take Backups of Your Wallet: Take backups of your digital wallet and store these backups offline, preferably in a physical vault or a secure location.
5. Use Up-to-Date Software: Always keep your devices operating systems, applications and security software up to date. Outdated software can be a potential risk for security vulnerabilities.
6. Pay Attention to Wi-Fi Connection: Be careful when connecting to open or untrusted Wi-Fi networks. If possible, encrypt your connection using a VPN.
7. Set Account Activity Alerts: Many platforms offer email or SMS alerts to notify you of unusual activity in your account. Enable these alerts.
8. Conscious Clicks: It is important not to download files from sources you do not know or trust, and not to click on links you do not know.

CipherAI takes your security seriously, but it is essential that our users are also aware of their own safety. These recommended practices will help you be more secure in the world of digital assets.
