Create a strong password (12–16 characters) with uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Avoid reusing passwords from email or other accounts. Use a password manager to generate and store secure credentials.
Activate Google Authenticator or Authy for enhanced security. Avoid SMS-based 2FA due to SIM swap risks. Use separate devices for authenticator apps when possible.
Keep your OS, browser, and antivirus updated. Avoid public Wi-Fi and shared computers; if necessary, use a trusted VPN. Disable browser autofill on shared devices.
A VPN masks your IP and encrypts traffic, enhancing privacy. Choose a reputable, no-log VPN provider for maximum security.
Always access KuCoin via the official site (https://www.kucoin.com). Use bookmarks instead of typing the URL. Be cautious of phishing links and fake apps.
Secure the email linked to KuCoin with its own strong password and 2FA. Avoid linking widely used emails. Configure security questions and anti-phishing codes.
Enable withdrawal whitelist to restrict funds to approved wallets. For APIs, restrict permissions and disable withdrawal capabilities.
Regularly review login history and IP addresses. Enable real-time notifications for logins and withdrawals.
Avoid accessing KuCoin on devices with screen recording software or untrusted browser extensions. Never share login details or screenshots with others.
Strong credentials, 2FA, VPN usage, device security, and vigilant account monitoring together maximize your privacy and security while logging into KuCoin.
