Odaily Planet Daily News: a16z Crypto has released an article on personal security of encrypted assets, emphasizing that physical security is equally crucial in the protection of digital assets. The article points out that although many users focus on digital security measures such as using hardware wallets and multi signatures, neglecting physical security may lead to serious consequences. For example, attackers may obtain sensitive information through social engineering methods or directly threaten individuals to obtain private keys. Therefore, a16z recommends that users take comprehensive security measures, including but not limited to:
1. Avoid discussing the amount of cryptocurrency assets held in public.
2. Store the private key and mnemonic words in a secure and decentralized location.
3. Regularly update security policies to prevent potential physical and digital threats.
A16z emphasizes that as the value of encrypted assets increases, users must simultaneously prioritize physical and digital security to comprehensively protect their assets.
