Trézór Bridge®™ | Secure Crypto Connectivity
Introduction
Security is the backbone of any hardware wallet solution. Trezor Bridge was designed to ensure that the communication between your computer and your Trezor device remains secure, private, and tamper-proof.
Local Communication Only
Unlike cloud-based software, Trezor Bridge communicates locally, not through the internet. This removes the possibility of remote interception. All data exchanged between your device and Trezor Suite stays inside your computer’s environment.
Encrypted Data Flow
Bridge uses encrypted channels to transmit information. Even if an attacker could access your system, deciphering the data stream would be virtually impossible. This encryption ensures that sensitive details—such as transaction signing—remain safe.
Strict Permissions
Only approved applications can interact with your Trezor device through Bridge. Browsers or websites cannot access the wallet unless explicitly allowed. This drastically reduces attack vectors such as malicious websites attempting unauthorized device access.
Automatic Updates and Security Patches
Trezor frequently updates Bridge to address vulnerabilities and maintain compatibility. These updates keep users protected against evolving threats and ensure the software meets modern security standards.
Isolation of Private Keys
Because Trezor is a hardware wallet, private keys never leave the device. Bridge merely facilitates communication—never touching or storing private keys. This makes it impossible for malware, even on a compromised computer, to extract your keys through Bridge.
Protection Against USB Exploits
Trezor Bridge implements safeguards that validate communication and block harmful USB requests. It ensures that only legitimate commands reach the device.
Conclusion
Trezor Bridge is designed with multiple layers of security to protect crypto users from threats. Its local communication, encryption, strict permissions, and trusted update system make it a secure solution for hardware wallet management.
