I have been closely following the growth of Web3 lately, and one thing that concerns me is how many companies in this space still underestimate security. Recently, I saw some very important recommendations circulating about how Web3 teams urgently need to strengthen their protection protocols.

The basics really start with two-factor authentication during login. Many people still think it's just paranoia, but the truth is that using authenticators, hardware keys, or passkeys makes all the difference in preventing credential leaks and account hijacking. It's not complicated to implement, but it saves a lot.

Then there's the issue of equipment. Every work computer should be encrypted and password-protected, ideally with fingerprint lock. And that detail of setting up automatic lock when no one is using it? It seems trivial but is essential. You know how it is, someone leaves their desk for five minutes and leaves everything open.

Now, what really makes a difference for Web3 companies is how they handle critical operations. Access to private keys, deployment permissions, financial accounts... all of this needs to run on truly trusted devices, with signature confirmations via hardware wallet. No exceptions.

There's also another strategy I found quite smart: managing wallets in layers. Basically separating operational wallets for daily use, marketing funds, and long-term reserves. That way, if something goes wrong, you don't lose everything at once. It’s like having multiple lines of defense.

In the end, what I see is that Web3 companies that take security seriously can sleep peacefully. It’s not about being paranoid; it’s about being professional.
