Security Best Practices

Your hardware wallet offers strong protection, but good security habits are equally important.

Always keep your recovery seed private and never share it with anyone. Store it offline in a secure location where only you can access it. Verify every transaction directly on your Trezor device before confirming. Keep your device firmware updated through the official setup process, and avoid entering your recovery seed on websites or into unexpected applications.

Following these best practices helps safeguard your wallet and maintain long-term security.

Why Choose a Hardware Wallet?

Unlike software wallets that remain connected to internet-enabled devices, a hardware wallet stores your private keys in a dedicated physical device. This additional layer of protection helps reduce exposure to online threats while giving you complete control over your digital assets.

Using Trezor.io/Start ensures that your hardware wallet is configured correctly from the beginning, making it easier to enjoy secure asset management with confidence.
