# Fuse Cash Security Guidelines
## Useful Guidelines on Keeping Your Fuse Cash Wallet Secured š
###
### **1. Start with a Secure Foundation for Your Wallet**
Make sure your device is free of any malware and never install [**fuse.cash**](https://fuse.cash/) onto a rooted device. To make sure you are always using an authentic version of fuse.cash wallet, you should download the app exclusively from the links provided on our [**website**](https://fuse.cash/).
### **2. Never Share Your Recovery Phrase or Private Key with Anyone**
Your recovery phrase is the gateway access into your wallet, never share it with anyone! Keep it secured and stored away from anyone to avoid unauthorised access.
### **3. Keep a Copy of Your Recovery Phrase Offline**
Always keep a copy of your recovery phrase stored offline! Writing it down on a piece of paper is the easiest but sometimes not the most durable solution. If you want something more durable than pen & paper, we recommend you to:
* Store it inside a Password Manager. Your recovery phrase will be stored inside an encrypted database either locally on the userās device or remotely through an online cloud service. You can try solutions like [**Lastpass 2.4k**](https://lastpass.com/), [**1Password 3.4k**](https://1password.com/) or [**KeePassXC 1.1k**](https://keepassxc.org/)
* Note taking Apps like **Notes** **for iOS**, **Samsung Notes** **for Android** or **OneNote** let you create notes protected with a password. If you donāt want to use a Password manager, storing it inside a password protected (and encrypted) note also works.
* You can also try and look into [**CRYPTOTAG**](https://cryptotag.io/), [**Keepkey + Billfodl**](https://privacypros.io/keepkey/buy/), [**ColdTi**](https://coldti.com/), or other or other similar security product solutions for private key storage.
### **4. Use the in-app Backup Feature**
Remember to always backup your recovery phrase through the in-app security feature.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Backup your recovery phrase in fuse.cash wallet by navigating to 'Account' -> 'Protect your wallet' -> 'Back up' .**
{% endhint %}
In the event your phone is broken, stolen, lost or the app is accidentally deleted, your wallet can always be restored on a different phone using the recovery phrase. There is no reset or recovery process, so if you lose your phrase, you lose your funds!
### **5. Enable Passcode or Touch/Face ID**
To make sure only you have access to your Fuse Cash mobile app, make sure to add another layer of authentication such as Passcode or Touch/Face ID to access your funds on your Fuse Cash wallet. This prevents any bad actors accessing your wallet in case you lose your mobile device or leave it unsafe .
