How to Secure your Wargaming Account

  1. Protect your computer
    • Keep both your antivirus and firewall active and fully updated. Scan your system for malware, key-loggers, and viruses.
    • Keep your Operating System fully updated. Your system will be less secure if any critical security updates are missed.
  2. Be careful with scam and phishing attempts.
  3. Create a Strong Password
    • The best passwords are long and complex. 
    • Password Managers can help you create strong passwords and then keep track of them. Example: KeePass (free and open-source).
  4. Associate a Phone Number 
    • Associating a phone number makes it difficult for hackers to change the email or password of a compromised Account.
  5. Add a Second Authentication Factor (2FA)
    • Having 2FA enabled makes it even more difficult for hackers to gain access to your Account.

Don't share your Account!

Even the most robust security measures are ineffective if an account is shared, including with friends or family members. Such practices may result in various issues, including unauthorized purchases, loss of in-game progress, and other unintended consequences.
