I'm surprised no one has advised up till now that downloading MEW from Github and then using it locally is a very good safety measure as well for ERC-20 tokens and Ethereum itself.
I'd never use something on website when I've the option of downloading it and running it locally on my machine.

First and foremost, We must keep our private key secret, it's our own choice what kind of wallet or device to store our keys and I prefer to use my ETHER wallet as storage wallet for my altcoins, make sure to create a different private key on every alternative coin. Having all these things you can protect your ALT coin
1. offline wallet ( recommand and it is cheapest also)
2. hardware wallets (it will cost but I recommand /Trezor or Nano ledger)
3. Do not click on links that you do not know. (maybe it will be a phising site)
4. Clear all the history on your computer as soon as posible

never tell your private key to others, and be careful of phishing sites that can divert you and steal your private key. will be more secure if you use an offline wallet such as ledger. Keep them in offline wallet
This not enough, need keep data from this purse, as least not on the Internet mediums, and at all desirable in notebooks or notebooks.
In my opinion, if you have coins on any Exchange then make strong password of 10-15 words in which alphabets, digits and symbols are include and also enable it with 2FA security feature or if possible then go with hardware wallets like Nanoledger or Trezor. And protect your all the passwords and keys in the safest place like in USB drive or write in paper. You can also never click on phishing mails or suspicious link. By doing this according to your choice, i think you can save your fund.
myetherwallet i think thats the best way to protect your altcoins.. because they have a private key.. but be careful to holding your private keys.. because now nothing is really safe in this digital world anything can be hacked so be careful..
First don't leave them on an exchange, put them in a wallet and keep your key and pass well locked.
If you can get a ledger it is even better but not all altcoins are compatible with it.
