The Security Hub: Safeguarding Your Assets

Recovery Seed

When setting up, you'll receive a 12- to 24-word recovery seed. Write it down on the provided card—never digitize or share it. If lost and your device is gone, your crypto is too. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}

PIN & Passphrase

Use the randomized PIN matrix on device to prevent screen logging attacks. Enhance protection with a passphrase to create hidden wallets. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}

Keep your device updated via Trezor Suite or Trezor.io/start to ensure optimal security and new features. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}

Third‑Party Integrations

Common Questions – Answered

1. What if I lose my Trezor device?

You can recover your funds using your recovery seed on a new Trezor device. Without that seed, there's no way to restore access. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}

2. Is Trezor safer than software wallets?

Yes. As a cold (hardware) wallet, your private keys remain offline and away from malware or hacking attempts that plague online wallets. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}

3. Can I skip installing Trezor Suite?

You can use third-party wallets (like Electrum or Metamask) via Bridge—but Trezor Suite offers the most secure and feature-rich experience. :contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}

4. Why does Trezor sometimes ask to install Bridge?

As updates bring vital security patches and enhancements, it’s best to check for new versions regularly via Trezor Suite or the official start page. :contentReference[oaicite:17]{index=17}
