Only advice, because I'm not an expert.
For Wallet security, it would be better if we use hardwallet like TREZOR, which is safer than a public wallet,
And also add Google Authenticator as additional security to our wallet.
Avoid pishing sites. In essence, only we are responsible for the security of our account, maintain its confidentiality and security, no one knows about the Private Key and does not lose it.

For sure the owners own the private key which should not be misplace or misuse in any cases. Private key or password is the only one that can open the lock wallet.

As one poster before me said, I also am not an expert, so this is just an advice. Try to get hardware wallets, because right now, they are simply the best (TREZOR, Ledger). They are not free however. If you want better security for free, try using paper wallets, but keep in mind that those can get stolen and easily used or damaged/lost. If you lose a hardware wallet, you can restore your assets on new one using passphrase.

I've also heard Trezor, and I also often hear Nano Ledger, both of which are hardware wallets, most of which say it's very safe to use and avoid hackers, maybe later I'll try to find out more about this wallet hardware.

I suggest every cryptocurrency trader should have an offline wallet like Trevor which can be order from Amazon to store there asset safely without anything like there wallet being backed and for those use online wallet you are advised to use 2FA code and activate SMS authentication. Also don't use any of your info related to where you save your asset in the public forum.
