Step 1: Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
This is the single most important security step. Go to Settings β Security β Two-Factor Authentication and enable it using an authenticator app (Google Authenticator or Authy). Avoid SMS-based 2FA when possible β authenticator apps are more secure against SIM-swapping attacks.
Step 2: Use a Strong, Unique Password
Your ON3X password should be at least 12 characters long, include uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Most importantly, it should be unique β never reuse a password from another service. Use a password manager like Bitwarden or 1Password to generate and store strong passwords.
Step 3: Verify Your Email and Phone
Make sure your email and phone number are current and verified. These are your recovery channels if you ever lose access to your account. Use an email provider with strong security (Gmail with 2FA enabled is a good choice).
Step 4: Review Connected Devices
Periodically check Settings β Security β Connected Devices to see all devices that have access to your account. Remove any devices you don't recognize. If you see suspicious activity, change your password immediately and contact support.
Step 5: Be Aware of Phishing
ON3X will never ask for your password, 2FA codes, or seed phrases via email, chat, or social media. Always access ON3X through the official app or website (on3x.io). Bookmark the URL and never click login links from emails or messages.
Step 6: Set Up Transaction Alerts
Enable push notifications for all transactions. This ensures you're immediately aware of any activity on your account, allowing you to react quickly if something looks wrong.
