Answer a question to begin

Your assessment updates as you go. Nothing you choose leaves this page.

This reflects preparation steps you’ve told us about. It isn’t a security rating and doesn’t predict whether an account will be compromised.

How does this check work?

Each question covers one preparation step that Telegram’s own documentation, or the way Telegram is built, makes important. Your result counts how many you’ve told us are in place, and recommends the rest in order. Access protection comes first, because without the account nothing else matters as much.

It runs entirely in your browser. Your answers aren’t sent anywhere, aren’t stored, and are gone when you leave the page. It never asks for a phone number, login code, password or anything else about your account, and no legitimate tool should.

Why these six questions?

Two-step verification
Stops a stolen login code from being enough. Set it up.
Recovery options
Telegram identifies accounts by phone number, and a recovery email lets you reset a forgotten password. Protect your number.
Active sessions
Forgotten or unknown sessions are a direct route into the account. Review them.
Exported data
The only copy of your history that survives the account being gone. Export it.
Knowing what happens
Exports can’t be imported and Secret Chats can’t be saved, so plans built on false assumptions fail. Backup vs export.
A continuity plan
A record of who and where to rebuild from. What a new account needs.
