Security Practices - Protecting Your PGP & Wallet
http://hn2paw7w627n5bro3zirrhb5bchugcjmm2mvxggnnlxqjkhhwzolbdid.onionWethenorth Market access starts with locking down your account. This guide covers PGP setup, unique passwords, session discipline, and how to verify mirrors before you log in. Every step is designed to keep your credentials off phishing clones and your funds in multisig escrow.
Strong, unique passwords for Wethenorth Market access
A password manager is the first line of defense for your Wethenorth Market access. Never reuse passwords from other sites, and avoid dictionary words or personal details that could be guessed.
The average darknet user has accounts on three to five markets. Reusing passwords across these platforms is a common mistake that turns a single breach into a cascade of lost funds. A password manager generates and stores long, random strings like 7x!9Lp#2Qv$4FgH — impossible to remember, impossible to crack.
WeTheNorth Market enforces a minimum 12-character password, but longer is better. The platform also supports a PIN system for quick logins after the initial PGP handshake. Treat this PIN like a second password: never store it in plain text, and never share it with anyone, including support staff.
Password checklist
- 16+ characters, mixed case, numbers, symbols
- No dictionary words or personal info
- Stored in a password manager (KeePassXC, Bitwarden)
- Changed immediately if you suspect a breach
PIN setup
After logging in with PGP, you can set a 6-digit PIN for quick re-authentication. This PIN is stored locally in your browser's session storage, not on the server. If you clear your browser data, you'll need to re-enter your PGP passphrase.
Never use a PIN that matches your debit card, phone unlock code, or any other easily guessable number.
PGP 2FA: the cornerstone of Wethenorth Market access
PGP encryption isn't optional on WeTheNorth Market. Every message, every login, and every release requires a valid PGP signature. Here's how to set it up correctly.
PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) is the encryption standard that keeps your communications private on the darknet. WeTheNorth Market uses it for two-factor authentication: you'll need to sign a challenge with your private key every time you log in. This ensures that even if someone steals your password, they can't access your account without your PGP key.
The market provides a public PGP key during registration. You'll need to import this key into your PGP software (GPG4Win for Windows, GPG Suite for Mac, or GnuPG for Linux). Once imported, you'll generate your own key pair and upload the public key to your market profile.
-
Install PGP software
Download and install GPG4Win (Windows) or GPG Suite (Mac). Linux users can install GnuPG from their package manager.
-
Generate your key pair
Open your PGP software and generate a new key pair. Use a strong passphrase (20+ characters, mixed case, numbers, symbols). The key type should be RSA 4096-bit for maximum security.
-
Import the market's public key
Copy the market's public key from your registration email or the market's PGP page. Import it into your PGP software and mark it as trusted.
-
Upload your public key
Export your public key (it will look like a block of random text starting with
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----). Paste this into your WeTheNorth Market profile under "PGP Settings". -
Test your setup
Log out and log back in. The market will send you a PGP-encrypted challenge. Decrypt it with your private key, sign it, and paste the result back into the login form. If everything is set up correctly, you'll be logged in.
Never share your private key
Your private PGP key is for your eyes only. Never upload it to the market, never share it with support staff, and never store it in cloud storage. If someone asks for your private key, they are trying to scam you.
Session management for safe Wethenorth Market access
Every login leaves a trace. Here's how to manage your sessions so you don't leave a trail that could be used against you.
WeTheNorth Market tracks active sessions in your account settings. You can see the IP address, user agent, and last activity time for each session. If you see a session you don't recognize, log it out immediately and change your password and PGP key.
The market also supports session timeouts. After 30 minutes of inactivity, you'll be automatically logged out. This is a security feature, not a bug — it prevents someone from accessing your account if you step away from your computer.
Session checklist
- Log out after every session
- Check active sessions weekly
- Use Tor Browser's "New Identity" feature between logins
- Never stay logged in on a shared computer
- Disable JavaScript in Tor Browser for extra security
What to do if you see a suspicious session
- Log out the suspicious session immediately
- Change your password and PGP key
- Check your recent activity for unauthorized actions
- Contact support if you see unauthorized withdrawals
