  One of the most important steps to protect your KuCoin API key is to keep it confidential and not share it with anyone. Additionally, you can enable IP whitelisting to restrict access to your API key only from trusted IP addresses. Regularly monitoring your API key usage and setting up alerts for any suspicious activity can also help in detecting unauthorized access. It is recommended to use strong and unique passwords for your KuCoin account and API key. Lastly, consider implementing two-factor authentication (2FA) for an added layer of security.
