To protect yourself from phishing on the Myetherwallet resource, use the METAMASK plugin.

You also need to check the ssl certificate (green bar)

I added MEW to my chromes extension and I don't get to import using my private key on decentralized exchanges instead I use Metamask which is equally added to my chromes extension.

How secure your Myetherwallet form Phising attack?
what kind of security you provied and what are the precautions from phishing attcack?

myetherwallet never has problem with phishing attack, they are FUD.
Protect yourself and don't paste your private keys in strange sites because that way you make yourself vulnerable to attacks.

For security way, you can download imtoken and link it to your myetherwallet; that way you get to view your balances on imtoken any time any seconds, instead of just using myetherwallet.com site every time

So get modern and download imtoken app and stay safe.

Sometimes the simplest way of protecting your funds are the best.

Bookmark MEW, write your private keys on paper and don't click unusual websites and always check the spelling and characters of the website you are visiting.

At first you will have to ensure the security of your private key that you need to login the account. Sometimes it happens that we mistakenly or due to carelessness keep our private key unsafe on the site. Sometimes you keep our account inline when we are not there. So keep your account offline when you are not there.

If we talk about precautionary measures about using wallets, then you should be very careful when surfing in the Internet.

Phishing is typically done through email, ads, or by sites that look similar to sites you already use, so double/triple check the URL before insert your private key, be aware of google ads from search engine, don't click unknown link from email, get a hardware wallet and it'll keep your assets secure

Actually if you don't want to download any extension in the google chrome you can bookmark the site. It is simple feature but useful, or you can use metamask that mention by others. But better you download metamask it's light, easy, and give you protection.

I installed an extension in the browser that helps block suspicious sites, I think that this is quite enough. But there are so many hackers..

It seems to me that Ethersan is an excellent resource that helps to monitor the state of funds on the wallet. In this case, we do not risk so much.

The easiest way to avoid phishing is always check the URL, make sure the SSL certificate, bookmark MEW site, never access MEW sites from links sent to you randomly and install Chrome extension like MetaMask to access your wallet on MEW and block malicious websites
Runs MEW locally will much better in my opinion. But just try to install metamask add-ons and this will be adding another layer to avoid the phishing or suspicious site that can steal our privatekey.
But in my experience, the majority of those are getting fucked due to the joined in various suspicious airdrop coins.

If you do not have a hardware wallet then use Metamask for more security. Also be careful when visiting unsafe websites.
