# How is my account kept secure?

BananaCrystal protects your account with multiple controls:

- **One-time email codes (OTP)** to authorize transfers.
- **Recipient allowlists** so funds can only go to approved recipients.
- **Approval flows and limits** for any AI agent acting on your behalf.
- **Automatic abuse protection** that can pause activity if something looks wrong.
- A **tamper-evident audit trail** of security-relevant events.
