Creating a Strong Password
A strong password is your first line of defense. It should be unique and complex, containing a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.
Avoid using personal information or common words to enhance your password strength.
- Use at least 12 characters.
- Include upper and lower case letters.
- Incorporate numbers and special characters.
- Avoid dictionary words.
- Change your password regularly.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication
Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second form of verification.
This could be a code sent to your mobile device or an authentication app.
- Set up 2FA in your BDG Game account settings.
- Choose a method that suits you: SMS, email, or an authentication app.
- Do not share your verification codes.
- Ensure your recovery options are updated.
- Regularly check your 2FA settings.
Be Aware of Phishing Attempts
Phishing occurs when attackers impersonate a legitimate source to steal your login information.
Always verify the sender's email address or website before clicking on links.
- Do not enter your password on unfamiliar sites.
- Look for HTTPS in the URL.
- Be cautious of unsolicited messages.
- Report suspicious communications to BDG Game support.
- Educate yourself about common phishing tactics.

- Use a password manager to track changes.
- Avoid reusing old passwords.
- Notify support if you suspect your password has been compromised.
- Change passwords following a data breach.
- Set reminders for password updates.
