Official Kraken Login | Avoid Phishing and Access Safely

Welcome to this guide on accessing your Kraken account securely. Your security is paramount.

Understanding the Threat of Phishing

Phishing is a malicious attempt to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details by disguising as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.

How to Verify the Official Website

Always check the **URL** in your browser's address bar. The official Kraken domain uses specific security measures.

• Look for the **padlock icon** ($🔒$) next to the URL.
• Ensure the URL starts with **https://** (not http://).

Recognizing Common Phishing Tactics

Be wary of urgent requests, spelling errors, or unexpected emails asking you to click a login link. Kraken will rarely ask for your password via email.

The Importance of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Even if phishers get your password, 2FA provides an essential second layer of defense, typically using an app on your phone (like Google Authenticator or YubiKey).

Summary of Best Practices

Never enter your credentials on a site you accessed via an unexpected email or pop-up. Manually type the address or use a bookmark.

What to Do If You Suspect an Attack

Immediately change your password, enable 2FA if you haven't, and contact Kraken Support via their *verified* official channels.
