How convenient is it to protect the browser from scammers?

In general, the history of the issue is as follows.
Recently, they infiltrated my computer via RDP and tried to change the password for the Bittrex exchange.
Fortunately, there was a two-factor system (and there is not much money there).
The trick is that Gmail is constantly authorized in Chrome. And it's awfully convenient. But the downside is that sites that are registered to this mail can be hacked by an attacker remotely in 5 minutes.
I understand that the answer here is to use other mails for financial accounts, and not remember the entrance there ..
But in this situation, is it possible to fasten something like a pin code to the mail / tab?

Somehow you are confused in terms :) either via rdp, or via powershell, they connected to you and the antivirus did not notice. And he shouldn't, the firewall should have cut down the external connection. But if it was a Trojan, malware, then the antivirus should work here already.
At your request - two-factor authentication will help (if it is supported by the service).
In fact - you urgently need to improve computer literacy.

You have problems with the security of logging in via RDP (apparently, a simple login / password pair), what does it have to do with everything else? It's like trying to put a padlock on a suitcase in a house that's closed... with a curtain.

If they hook a keylogger, the pin will not save.
