1. The "Golden Rule" of Isolation
Never use your daily-use email for your crypto accounts, Create a dedicated, "silent" email address solely for financial services. This reduces your exposure to phishing leaks from other compromised websites.
2. Upgrade Your 2FA (Go Beyond SMS)
Just like your Binance account, your email needs an Authenticator App, If you hold significant assets, consider a YubiKey (Hardware Security Key), It is the ultimate defense against remote hacking.
3. The Hidden Danger: Forwarding Rules
Hackers often set up "Secret Forwarding" They won't change your password; they'll just silently forward every email from "Binance" to their own address and delete the original.
✅ Action: Check your email settings for any unrecognized "Forwarding" or "Filter" rules TODAY.
4. Check Recent Activity
Most providers (Gmail, Outlook, Proton) allow you to see where you are logged in, If you see a session from a country you’ve never visited, log out of all devices and change your password immediately.
5. Stay SAFU
If your email is the weak link, your entire portfolio is at risk, Treat your email security with the same priority as your private keys. 🛡️
