  To enhance the security of your Bitcoin wallet protected by Google Authenticator, you should enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for both your wallet and your Google Authenticator app. Additionally, make sure to regularly update your Google Authenticator app and your wallet software to the latest versions to benefit from the latest security patches. It is also recommended to use a strong and unique password for your wallet and enable biometric authentication if available. Lastly, keep your backup codes and recovery phrases in a safe place to avoid losing access to your wallet in case of device loss or failure.
