Security and Privacy¶
Payme.sol prioritizes the security and privacy of your transactions on the Solana blockchain. Whether you're using the Basic (free with limited transactions) or Pro (paid with advanced features), follow these best practices to protect your funds and data.
Wallet Security¶
- Create a Dedicated Wallet Address: Use a separate wallet address exclusively for Payme.sol transactions. This isolates your primary wallet from potential risks and unauthorized access. Consider transferring funds to a primary wallet periodically for added safety.
- Use a Hardware Wallet: Hardware wallets store private keys offline, significantly reducing the risk of hacking. This is highly recommended for users handling large transaction volumes.
- Regularly Back Up Your Wallet: Securely back up your wallet's recovery phrase and store it in multiple safe locations. Never share it with anyone.
Device Security¶
- Use a Dedicated Mobile Device: For enhanced security, consider using a dedicated mobile device for Payme.sol transactions, especially for business purposes. This minimizes risks if the device is lost or stolen.
- Limit Device Access: Install only essential apps, such as the Phantom wallet with your Payme.sol wallet address, to reduce potential vulnerabilities.
- Strong Passwords and Biometric Authentication: Use strong, unique passwords for your device and wallet. Enable biometric authentication (e.g., fingerprint or face ID) for an additional layer of security.
- Regular Software Updates: Keep your device’s operating system and wallet software updated to benefit from the latest security patches.
Online Safety¶
- Beware of Phishing Attacks: Exercise caution with emails, messages, or websites that request your wallet credentials. Always verify the authenticity of links before interacting.
- Secure Wi-Fi Networks: Avoid public Wi-Fi for transactions. Use secure private networks or mobile data to protect sensitive information.
- Monitor Wallet Activity: Regularly check your wallet for unusual or unauthorized transactions to detect issues early.
