To ensure your account is as secure as possible, we recommend the following steps to protect your account.
Make sure your email is secure. Your email is the most important connection to your NiceHash account. You can use https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to see if your email address has ever been compromised in any security breach. Hackers will try to use your email to log in to crypto-related sites, so make sure your email has not been compromised. It is a good practice to have a separate email for financial/crypto related accounts.
NiceHash employees will never ask for your password. Never tell your password(s) to anyone.
We recommend you use a password manager such as KeePass, the free and open-source password manager.
Make sure you always use a complex and unique password that is not used on any other website or service.
We highly recommend the use of 2FA or two-factor authentication security feature, when using important websites or services. This greatly reduces the risk of being hacked online. See this article on how to set up 2FA Security with NiceHash.
Phishing attacks are very common online security threats. Attackers usually set up a fake website that looks like the original or they send fake emails, which look like they come from a genuine site, with malicious links and malware. We recommend that you set up an anti-phishing code in your NiceHash settings. Always bookmark important websites and access them only via bookmarks.
