How Can I Make My Account More Secure?

If you don’t own a smartphone and are restricted to receiving your 2-step verification codes via a text message, you should follow the steps in the section “Adding 2FA” on the account to reduce the likelihood that you will suffer a SIM swap or phone port attack. If you are using the GIFA Exchange / GIFA Wallet mobile app to access your account, we highly recommend enabling a security setup in the app’s security settings. You can enable these features for both accessing the app and sending funds with the app.
A SIM swap or phone port attack occurs when an attacker has their target’s phone number transferred to a mobile device under the attacker’s control. Fraudsters are able to do this through a variety of means, including identity theft and socially engineering mobile carrier customer support representatives. This type of attack is a threat to all accounts using SMS-based 2-step verification and any account that can be recovered using phone-based authentication. To help protect yourself against this type of attack, please complete the following:
- Call your mobile service provider and tell them about port freezing.
- Ask them for a valid photo ID verification, whenever making new changes.
- Ask them to add or enable a PIN number when making changes to your account.
- Inquire about other security measures you can enable on your mobile account.
Your email is one of the most important connections between you and your GIFA Exchange account. We use your email to confirm new devices, send you important alerts about your account, and communicate with you if you need support. Please make sure it is always secure!
Always, check constantly whether or not your email address has ever been compromised. If so, we recommend changing any passwords associated with that email address. You should also enable 2-step verification on your personal email account as well. As an additional security precaution, you should conduct a periodic security review of your email account and settings as well:
- Check your email account for unusual rules, filters, or forwarding addresses.
- Check your email account settings for authorized devices you do not recognize.
- Check for unauthorized recovery emails or phone numbers added to the account.
For those who feel like they may be at risk of targeted account takeover attempts, check out Google’s Advanced Protection Program.
While there are many types of malware that can infect a device, a few in particular can be especially worrisome. Keyloggers, remote access trojans (RATs), and cookie-stealing malware can all be used to steal your sign-in credentials and gain unauthorized access to your accounts. To protect your devices from these types of threats, consider the following:
- Utilize anti-virus protection and scan your device regularly. You should also be updating your virus signatures as often as possible to stay ahead of new threats.
- Keep your device updated with all of the most recent operating system and security updates.
- Keep your web browser and all other software updated with their latest versions.
- Uninstall all questionable or unnecessary pieces of software from your device, especially tools that allow remote access.
- Install an ad blocker like uBlock Origin in your browser to help protect you from malicious ads.
- Practice safe web browsing habits and never click on suspicious links or download suspicious programs.
- Do not install and use browser plug-ins or add-ons developed by unknown third parties.
- Enable a screen lock and password to gain access to your device.
