Secure Password Practices
To ensure the utmost security of your AvaTrade account, it is essential to follow best practices for password management:

- Avoid using personal information or common phrases as passwords.
- Change your password regularly (recommended every 3-6 months).
- Never share your password with anyone, including AvaTrade representatives.

MFA combines multiple authentication factors, such as biometrics (fingerprint or facial recognition), security tokens, or one-time passwords, to verify your identity during login or sensitive transactions.
To set up MFA, contact our support team for assistance and guidance.
