Follow these essential guidelines to keep your Ledger Live account and cryptocurrency assets secure
Create a unique password with at least 12 characters, combining uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols. Never reuse passwords from other services. Consider using a password manager to generate and securely store complex passwords.
Activate 2FA immediately after creating your account. Use authenticator apps like Google Authenticator or Authy for the highest security. Avoid SMS-based 2FA when possible, as it's vulnerable to SIM swapping attacks. Store backup codes in a secure location.
Always check you're on the official Ledger domain before entering credentials. Bookmark the official login page and use it exclusively. Be wary of phishing emails or messages asking you to log in. Ledger will never ask for your password or recovery phrase via email.
Regularly review your login history and account activity for any unauthorized access. Enable email notifications for new logins from unrecognized devices. If you notice suspicious activity, immediately change your password and contact Ledger support.
Your 24-word recovery phrase is the master key to your cryptocurrency. Write it down on paper and store it in a secure physical location, such as a safe. Never store it digitally or share it with anyone, including Ledger support staff. Consider using a metal backup for fire and water resistance.
Always use the latest version of Ledger Live and keep your hardware wallet firmware up to date. Security updates often patch vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers. Enable automatic updates when available and only download software from official Ledger sources.
