This presentation explains how Trezor's official wallet and login flow work, best practices for keeping keys safe, and practical guidance for everyday use. It is aimed at users preparing to set up a hardware wallet or integrate Trezor into a desktop or web workflow.
Trezor is a hardware wallet that stores your private keys offline. The official Trezor Wallet (web or desktop) acts as the user interface while the device signs transactions internally. This separation keeps your keys safe even when your computer or browser is compromised.
Transaction approval on-device prevents man-in-the-middle or host-based tampering. The wallet shows human-readable details but the device enforces the final cryptographic check.
The recovery seed is the last-resort backup that regenerates private keys. Write it down on a physical medium and store in at least two secure, geographically separated locations. Do not photograph or type your seed into devices.
Practice restoring to a spare device before you need it for real — this ensures your saved seed is complete and legible and that the procedure is familiar.
The Trezor official wallet supports many cryptocurrencies and integrates with popular third-party services (exchanges, portfolio trackers, DeFi interfaces) through standard signing protocols. Use only trusted integrations and verify transaction details on-device.
For teams, consider policies that combine hardware custody with organizational controls. Multi-signature setups spread signing authority across devices, reducing single-point failure risk. Document access policies and rotate keys when staff changes.
For daily use, create a small, spend-only wallet for routine transactions and keep the bulk of funds in long-term cold storage. Use the device for high-value approvals and audit activity logs regularly.
Trezor's official wallet paired with correct operational security gives you the strongest practical protection for private keys. Initialize carefully, protect your recovery seed, verify actions on-device, and keep your firmware current.
