Security Note: Trezor Suite verifies the authenticity of your device and ensures you're using genuine Trezor hardware.
After installation, Trezor Suite will guide you through the firmware installation process. Firmware updates contain critical security improvements, so it's essential to keep your device updated.
Your Trezor device will generate a unique recovery seed—a list of 12, 18, or 24 words that represents your private keys. This is the most critical step in securing your cryptocurrency.
Critical Security Step: Write down your recovery seed on the provided card and store it in a secure location. Never store it digitally or share it with anyone.
After confirming your recovery seed, set up a PIN code for your device. This PIN will be required every time you connect your Trezor to a computer, adding an extra layer of security.
