Ledger Live's security model is fundamentally different from traditional software wallets, providing unparalleled protection for your digital assets.
Your private keys are generated and stored exclusively within the secure element of your Ledger device, never exposed to connected computers or smartphones.
Every transaction requires manual approval on your Ledger device, preventing unauthorized access even if your computer is compromised.
Access to your device is protected by a PIN code, with the device wiping itself after three incorrect attempts to prevent brute force attacks.
