Your security, our priority

Ledger devices use multiple layers of security to keep your crypto assets safe from hackers and theft.

PIN Protection

Your device is protected by a PIN that you set during setup. After 3 wrong attempts, your device resets.

Recovery Phrase

24-word recovery phrase ensures you can always restore your wallet, even if you lose your device.

Transaction Verification

Every transaction must be physically approved on your device screen before it can be executed.
