Follow the on-screen instructions to initialize your Trezor. You'll be prompted to install the latest firmware, which is essential for security and functionality.
Your device will generate a unique recovery seed - a list of 12, 18, or 24 words. Write these down in the exact order and store them in a secure location. This seed is your backup if your device is lost or damaged.
Create a PIN code to protect your device from unauthorized access. The PIN is entered using the randomized number matrix on your Trezor screen to prevent keyloggers from capturing it.
Trezor incorporates multiple layers of security to protect your digital assets from various threats.
Private keys are generated and stored securely within the device, never exposed to your computer or the internet.
Device access is protected by a PIN code with randomized input to prevent keylogging attacks.
