Title: Best Security Practices with Blockchain.info? Post by: windjc on September 27, 2013, 10:46:07 PM I have recently made my first BTC deposit into my blockchain.info wallet. I have printed out a paper wallet. I have also had a backup created and I have downloaded the multi-bit desktop app to use the backup with if needed.
I created a 10 digit password and another longer digit double password for transfers. Double encrypted now. From your experience, are my BTC still vunerable? If so, what steps should I use to secure further? Thanks in advance. Title: Re: Best Security Practices with Blockchain.info? Post by: crazy_rabbit on September 28, 2013, 07:33:23 AM Get a Yubikey. If you have a keylogger on your computer, you could be tripple encrypted with 20 character passwords and it means nothing. If you've got bitcoin, you basically need One time password devices. I use Google Authenticator as well as Yubikeys.

A double authen with phone will prevent that to happen.
