I understand your concern about account security. Currently, VALORANT mainly offers two-factor authentication (2FA) via email to help secure accounts. While there is no official option to add a phone number for additional security at the moment, it's a popular request. Here are some steps you can take to improve your account security:
1. Use a Strong, Unique Password: Ensure your password is a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols and isn't used for any other accounts.
2. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Ensure 2FA is enabled on your Riot account for an extra layer of security.
3. Secure Your Email: Make sure the email associated with your Riot account also has strong security measures, including 2FA if possible.
4. Regularly Monitor Your Account: Check for any suspicious activity and report it immediately.
5. Avoid Sharing Account Information: Never share your account details with anyone.
For the latest updates on security features, you might want to keep an eye on Riot Games' official announcements and support pages.

especially the email one as its the most important one
i had different ones since start and when my email got hacked he got access to everytign sadly
if there was a phone number way it would be more secure imo
how did your email got hacked then
literally no idea dude, its so weird. i hvnt downloaded nor clicked any links
its as if he had remote access
to my pc
did you do anything about it?
he might still have access to your pc
there is a hacker attack that activates after 3-8 months to make the user not aware what they did wrong
you might be the target of that
the best thing i would do is wipe your disc and reinstall windows
or whatever operating system you have
bro ur scaring me
thats like basics of the cybersecurity
the best free antivirus u can have is windows defender if youre not installing anything sketchy, if you are maybe try using Avira or some paid ones like Eset
i hv malwarebytes nd avist or smth also windows defender
ran all the scans nd its all good
avast is bad
malwarebytes really good
i would still wipe the drive though
all both the harddrive nd ssd
i would say yes
will that do anything tho like surely he might still have access afterwards
might just buy a new pc
xd
if you wipe the disc he wont like you delete all of the files
yea but all this is just hypethetical
like maybe he doesnt have remote access
im gona b positive
but im stil gpna wipe it
but i still think they sjud add more security
als @adz maybe your passes got leaked
there are multiple of leaks nowadays
maybe, thanks for helping tho nd showing interest
sure bro in case search online for some tips on security
check public data leaks
