In cryptocurrency Security and privacy are the two main important elements in cryptocurrency, it should be taken seriously, so that it can protect the assets and the important information from any future threats.

In my writing I will share six important outlines that is related to security and privacy in the cryptocurrency space.

securing network connections:

Here I think Virtual private network is the best secure network to use when ever we are conducting transactions or when ever we are accessing our cryptocurrency account. With my notice , it prevents unauthorized interception of data. If we can avoid using public Wi-Fi networks it will be better because it causes more harm than good. Instead of serving our account, it's help in leaking some sensitive information out there.

Keeping software up to date:

updating cryptocurrency wallets regularly, the exchanges, and software, it’s very important to protect against the unknown vulnerabilities and security flaws.
If we don’t update the software it can be expose to users to try the hacking attempts.

Avoiding phishing scams:

In Phishing scams target, users in cryptocurrency that are working on services to access the login credit and also a good information. In the process receiving warning and getting verification the authenticity of any websites and the emails, this can help the victims in falling for the phishing attacks.
