Learn more about security and your NFID Wallet
Your NFID Wallet is the easiest way to create an anonymous identity for digital asset storage and connecting to a variety of applications. It’s built on a decentralized network to minimize threat vectors and uses best-in-class security technologies to secure your data.
The NFID Wallet protocol has strict policies and procedures in place to prevent unauthorized access to your wallet. NFID Wallet is a self-custody digital identity, which means there is nobody here who can recover your account except you.
Protect your NFID Wallet
To help protect your NFID Wallet and all the important content that you store with your wallet, you can follow these recommendations.
🔒 Protect your account with self-sovereign mode
Two-factor authentication is designed to make sure that you're the only person who can access your NFID, even if someone else has access to your email account. Learn how to set up self-sovereign mode.
🫣 Add two-factor authentication to your NFID Wallet email account
Even if you have self-sovereign mode enabled, it’s still good practice and security hygiene to enable two-factor authentication on your email account as well.
🛑 Don’t share an NFID Wallet
Don't let other people add their own passkey to your NFID Wallet, even family members. Sharing an NFID Wallet means that you're giving someone else access to all of your personal content and assets. If someone else helped you set up your NFID Wallet, set up self-sovereign mode and make sure your passkeys are the only ones listed. If you want to share assets with a group of people, use NFID Vaults.
