Security Tips

To enhance your security while using MetaMask, consider the following tips:

  • Verify Website URLs: Always ensure you're on the correct website or DApp before logging in with MetaMask. Phishing sites can mimic legitimate ones to steal your information.

  • Secure Your Seed Phrase: Your seed phrase is the key to your wallet. Store it in a safe place, preferably offline, and never share it with anyone.

  • Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): While MetaMask itself doesn't support 2FA, you can enable it on platforms you interact with for added security.
