Wallet burnerability is not only the user's fault

Good morning to all my dear readers of this prestigious community, for today I want to complement some of my previous posts about the security of cryptocurrency wallets and computer security itself.

For no one is a secret that many people have been robbed of their cryptocurrency accounts leaving great economic damage to users who live on cryptocurrencies, now this is due in small and large features to the failure of the user's computer security in addition to the cryptocurrency platform itself, I'll explain.

When you access your browser many people do not know that when you enter the web there are already access doors to your computer, but the trick is to make it difficult for hackers to enter by placing many more doors that do not lead to our personal information.

The most common wallets do not need identification or confirmation emails which make it extremely susceptible to hacks, many are unaware that the complicated thing is not to enter a person's computer, the complicated thing is to access your personal data in fact a large percentage of the population is being spied right now, and it is not any paranoia is that many programs that we use ask permissions to access seven computer or cell phone information, with the excuse of improving the user experience. If it is within your possibilities, disable those options or call your trusted technician.

In the absence of a second instance verification as a message to the mobile or a confirmation email to access make wallet platforms are insecure, to give an example of how it should be done we have Binance, which requires several confirmation steps to perform actions and transactions, which puts countless doors in front of the hacker.

Yesterday I read a news that a Modified Windows 10 activator that is on the web when used grants access to the computer to the creator, which has led to a series of crypto wallet thefts everywhere.

Recommendations:

  • Do not install freeware without consulting your technician first, or make sure the source is reliable.
  • Do not deactivate your computer's antivirus. (Windows 10)
  • Do not install free antivirus that come with Spyware.
  • Do not lend your personal computer where your wallet is to second persons these without wanting these could infect with a clip our computer.
