Security Principles You Should Know

Your private keys always stay on your physical device. All signing happens internally—your computer or internet connection never gets access to your keys.

Whenever confirming transactions, always cross-check the address, amount, and destination shown on your Trezor screen. Phishing or malware could alter what the computer shows, but not the device. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
