Introduction
Trezor Suite is the companion application to the Trezor hardware wallet. It enables users to safely manage, trade, and protect their cryptocurrency in a secure offline-first way.
Why It Matters
Cryptocurrency, while revolutionary, brings unique risks. From exchange hacks to malware stealing your private keys, security is critical. Trezor Suite keeps your keys offline—transactions are signed in the hardware wallet and only then broadcast. This dramatically reduces the risk of theft.
