🛡️ Security

Maintaining the security of your account and transactions is crucial when using the Alert Friend bot.

Overview

While the bot employs robust encryption to secure your private keys, it is essential to remember that you are 100% responsible for safeguarding your private keys. Below are key practices, recommendations, and tips to help you stay secure.

Security Best Practices

Keep Your Private Keys Secure:

• Recommendation: Never share your private keys or access credentials with anyone. Ensure they are stored in a secure location, inaccessible to unauthorized individuals.

• Tip: Consider using a secure method to store your private keys.

Double-Check Transactions:

• Recommendation: Always verify transaction details carefully before confirming. Ensure the recipient address and the amounts are correct.

• Tip: Use the "Trade Confirmation" feature to review each transaction before it is executed.

Regular Updates:

• Recommendation: Keep your Telegram and Bot up to date with the latest versions and security patches. This ensures protection against known vulnerabilities.

• Tip: Follow the bot’s communication channels to receive updates on new versions and best practices.

Secure Use of the Bot

Using Slippage Carefully:

• Recommendation: Configure your slippage settings carefully to avoid overpaying due to market volatility.

• Tip: Set a low slippage percentage for "User Slippage" to minimize the risk of paying more than expected.

Fast Trade Security:

• Recommendation: Fast Trade is designed for speed but may be less secure as it skips transaction confirmation. Use it only when you are certain of market conditions.

• Tip: Consider using "Safe Trade" to ensure all transactions are confirmed by the network before execution.

Protecting Your Account

Account and Access Security:

• Recommendation: Ensure your Telegram account is secured, including enabling two-step verification and locking your chats for additional protection.

• Tip: Monitor your account activity regularly and be vigilant about any suspicious behavior.

Responding to Security Incidents

In Case of Compromise:

• Recommendation: If you suspect your account has been compromised, contact bot support immediately and take steps to secure your assets.

• Tip: Revoke any keys or permissions that may have been compromised and change your access credentials.

Encryption and Data Protection

Data Encryption:

• Recommendation: The bot uses encryption to securely store private keys, providing the highest level of security possible.

• Note: Even if you export your key, the bot's system can still synchronize related transactions for your account.

Conclusion

Your security is a shared responsibility. While the Alert Friend bot provides robust security measures, including encryption, it is ultimately up to you to protect your private keys and maintain secure practices. Always stay vigilant and proactive in safeguarding your assets.
