Security Best Practices

Follow these essential security tips to keep your crypto assets safe

Always Verify on Device

Every transaction must be verified and confirmed on your Trezor device screen. Never approve a transaction without carefully reviewing all details.

Protect Your Recovery Seed

Your recovery seed is the master key to your funds. Store it offline in a secure location. Never share it with anyone or enter it into any website or application.

Watch for Phishing Attempts

Only download Trezor Suite from trezor.io. Beware of fake websites, emails, or support contacts asking for your seed phrase or private keys.

Keep Firmware Updated

Regularly update your Trezor firmware through Trezor Suite to ensure you have the latest security features and bug fixes.

Critical Security Reminder

Trezor will never ask for your recovery seed via email, phone, or any online form. Anyone claiming to be Trezor support and requesting your seed phrase is a scammer.
