Utilize cold storage solutions for long-term holding of cryptocurrencies. Cold storage involves keeping private keys offline, away from internet-connected devices, thereby mitigating the risk of online attacks. Hardware wallets (like Ledger or Trezor) and paper wallets are popular cold storage methods.
Multi-signature (multi-sig) wallets require multiple approvals before transactions can be executed. This adds an additional layer of security, making unauthorized transactions significantly harder to execute.
Ensure that your operating system, antivirus software, and applications are up to date. Regular updates often include crucial security patches that protect against newly discovered vulnerabilities.
