Hello,

I would like your thought and advice regarding pc trading to prevent security hack?

4/Bookmark exchange website that i use and double check that the website address in the search bar are in the same

5/2FA Google Authenticator

I heard about RDP (Remore Desktop control),
What do u think? Is it really neccessary ?

Thanks all for sharing your input
4 and 5 work. bookmark help you to avoid fishing sites. And 2FA help to protect your account, even though when the hackers have your account ID and password, they still can't log in.

1/Use Cable Ethernet (no wifi connexion)

2/Create à virtual machine in which i’m Going to install Linux cuz as I heard window is not so good in term of security

3/Use vpn : which is the best for trading pc?
Didn't work at all. It's about how you setup your internet connection, not about using cable or wireless.
Linux is only safer than Windows if its user is a tech-guy. If you don't have any knowledge about Linux, so just use Windows.
VPN: your exchange account may be got locked due to the exchange rules. Most exchanges don't accept vpn.
