is there any way to safeguard system on MEW besides Private Key? I am afraid of phishing on MEW
You should bookmark the MEW address to avoid visiting the suspect site! Limit your wallet if you do not really need it, ensuring the least and most likely causes for losing your private key!

I recommend you to buy Ledger Nano S and then use MEW through the hardware wallet. You will be entirely safe then.

Safest would be getting a hardwallet and use your mew together with it,im sure you will be protected from all the types of attack and even if you lose your hardwallet you can still recover your coins using your recovery seed,even if your computer has been infected by the viruses and malwares theres no way these things can crack a hardwallet's security.

while I also have not found a solution to double lock on MEW, but at least you can do early prevention of phishing action in the following ways:


1. Use Chrome Browser Extension EAL or MetaMask to block malicious sites.
2. Always check the URL in Browser Bar: https://www.myetherwallet.com. and always make sure the bar is green and it says MYETHERWALLET LLC [US], this paper does not appear and is just green like this picture
3. Do not easily believe in messages sent via email, reddit, twitter, slack and other media.
4. Always highlight on the link and do not click on it, when we highlight the link will appear the address at the bottom left corner of the browser, we make sure whether the address is trusted or not.
5. Never once provide confidential information on websites that you have accidentally clicked it.
6. Do not click any ads on the website, and if necessary install adblocker to avoid other things.
I have experienced phishing, is it because my Personal Key is leaking? or deliberately hacked others?
I certainly do not know the chronology you are experiencing, sometimes in using a computer device there is something unintentional without knowing we are doing the wrong thing that allows an opportunity for the hackers in various ways they serve content as a tool of phishing practice, in this case should always be careful and alert.
the matter of leaking the private key or not it may happen, because it is impossible others can take your rights in the MEW is without a key.
is there any additional person to randomize Private Key wallet. the perfect struck on our wallet.

maybe metamask could be your choice, because with metamask every transaction we have to confirm first and it will be notification to us when there is unknown transaction.
I agree with your opinion, I think metamask is the safest I have used it and I think it's very safe protecting our wallet

The safest ways according my experience are using Metamask. Because with thats extensions you can avoid your self from trap with the phising link. Just keep your private keys safe as you can dude.

use MetaMask
You can download it using Google Chrome
MetaMask is a trusted extension and is highly recommended by some great people
with MetaMask, you no longer need to copy and paste private key
any phishing website will never be linked to MetaMask
when there is a phishing or malicious website, Metamask will give notice
I also prefer MetaMask!

I've never downloaded Metamask but I do not know how to use it if it's just installed or should there be a configuration that I need to do?
