Overview
Your Gemini® account provides access to trading, custody, and portfolio data. The sign-in step is the primary control that separates you from unauthorized access. This page gives concise, practical controls you can apply now — unique passwords, authenticator-based 2FA, device hygiene, phishing resistance, session review, and recovery planning. These layered practices reduce risk and give you an operational plan for account security.
Password strategy
Use a unique, high-entropy password stored in a reputable password manager. Prefer passphrases of 12–20 characters or more. Never reuse exchange passwords across services. Enable password manager alerts for breached credentials and rotate passwords if any breach is detected.
Two-factor authentication (2FA)
Enable app-based 2FA (TOTP) rather than SMS to reduce SIM-swap risk. If Gemini® supports hardware keys (WebAuthn/FIDO2), register one for administrative or withdrawal-capable accounts. Securely record backup codes offline and protect them physically.
Verify pages & avoid phishing
Always arrive at Gemini via a saved bookmark or by typing the domain. Don’t click login links inside emails or social messages. Check the address bar for correct domain and certificate padlock. If you see an unexpected certificate warning or domain typo, stop and verify by other means.
Device hygiene
Use a dedicated or minimally configured browser profile for trading. Keep OS and browser updated, run periodic malware scans, and remove unnecessary extensions. Avoid logging in from public or shared machines.
Session review & recovery planning
Regularly review active sessions and connected apps; revoke anything unfamiliar. Store recovery information (backup codes, trusted contacts) offline and rehearse your recovery steps. Document who to contact and what proof to collect if an incident occurs.
