Unfortunate the hackers they update their Technics according to the security technology development, so if we stay on the old technology we dont update our security we will be victim of hackers and easy to hack us.

I have already activated most of those tips in my smartphone to make it safe from cyber criminals. Our first priority must be of the security of our crypto assets. So take all these steps to secure your phone.

Precaution is better for you than to accidentally make a mistake if you understand the significance. All I said is that I agree with you about it because the penetration process takes place through your mobile phone because it contains important things that they can penetrate your accounts. And one of the best precautions in every process that you do with your phone is one mistake that costs you a lot

[Abiaan 1209]

theres alot of ways to get hacked , it will make much more secure to your account but as i see this is the beginners section and as a beginner most of the people fall for the phishing sites more than getting their device hacked

[BrolySSJ 7899]

I must admit that i myself have been guilty of doing some of these on my mobile phones, however after reading an article that was recently published online on the vulnerability of the mobile phones and the malware that can infect phones to change wallet addresses, i am not very careful. Also i have been scammed out of a lot of crypto in the past, and have had an account of mine hacked before through the use of third party software. I now do not use third party software and only use official apps for the sites that i use and i suggest that everyone else do the same as well.

  We both use mobile phones as an essential part of our daily lives with which we have been immersed in digital life.
  Many digital currency traders were exposed to cyber criminals who exploit the weaknesses of mobile phones. Therefore, it became necessary to secure mobile devices as follows:
  First, the digital ID must not be linked to portable devices.
  Secondly, the electronic wallet in which the digital currencies are stored must be free from any records of trading and registration in profitable and investment locations, and to call them the forgotten wallet (Z).
  Third, the mobile phone must not have a SIM card containing the forgotten wallet (Z).
  Fourth, you must own another mobile device to carry out the operations of earning, trading, investing and transferring profits from currencies to the portfolio (Z).
  Fifth, use widgets like google Authentictot or Authy to secure the account with 2FA authentication.
  Sixth, avoid falling victim to fraudulent cybercriminals' applications when doing transactions by verifying the recipient's wallet address and pasting it multiple times and making sure it is correct every time.
  Seventh, do not save passwords and code messages to your phone
  Eighth, entry away from public, insecure, open Internet networks was kept away.

  In conclusion, hurry to secure your currencies so that you are in your wallet, not to someone else.

one thing that makes cryptocurreny dangerous is that the scammers and cyber criminals. When i'm in doubt about earning btcs i used to think that it could risk my safety and also if it is legit so the future of digital currency is promising yet the upcoming dangers is inevitable since once digital currency dominates, cyber criminals will rise up too.

Thank you for such useful topic containing most of the cyber issues we are facing right now at cryptocurrencies community.

 

Nevertheless i think that those are not only all of them as from my experience there are lot more from downloading 3rd party apps, email spammers or keyloggers and much more stuff coming from the internet.

 

On the other hand using cellphones might also potentiate such stuff.

[Zezo 306]

What are all these procedures? Are things complicated to this degree? I thought it was enough to use a decentralized wallet and keep the private key in a safe place

[Gooooku 421]

Cyber crimes have been incredibly increased in these past years . And while the world is upgrading , hackers are also upgrading and increasing . Well the points you mentioned i completely agree with that and I think we have to use different cell phone without sim card while making transaction otherwise we may fall in the trap of scammers . So we have to be serious regarding this 

[malik6314193 5449]

Mostly your warning are best and should be followed. But some are just over thinking suggestion like you don't have and sim card in your mobile in which you have wallet and you have always another phone.

Thanks for the reminder. I had some things on my phone that I had to get rid-off and your post reminded me. There should be strict security on our mobiles guys. Be careful and don't hold too much on mobile wallets either. There are many ways hackers can get access.

Just don't give your private information especially when a random person asking it on you. 

Be wise and trust your doubt always, if you know they have bad intentions much better to never talk to them.

Any user of cryptocurrencies should take all necessary steps to secure his account and not download any application from an unknown source on mobile phone in order not to be stolen your data. I recommend enabling the 2FA feature For your account, it is effective against hacking

[Alimhana930 1605]

In general, the uses of cryptocurrencies have become in various climates of life and for various commodities, and they are more desirable than fiat currencies for some. Among these things and commodities are the illegal things, but in the central platforms, these processes can be controlled and tracked, unlike the decentralized platforms that do not need a middleman and in my opinion this is the nature of things.

[Alex9876r 1408]

Unfortunately, now most countries are facing difficulty in legislating the use of cryptocurrencies due to the possibility of using them for illegal matters or having difficulty controlling their use Unfortunately, there are currencies that have a high level of privacy protection, in addition to decentralized platforms Thus, it is freely used in all fields

Yes, you're right
In addition, I advise everyone not to download applications that require permissions to access personal information on the phone.

Its true we surely avoid those unknown application who wants our personal information to access our account, but its little hard because now a days so many apps required to give permission to access on our mobile, so download only trusted and we needed apps.
