Security You Can Trust

Ledger Live® is built upon the same security principles that have made Ledger hardware wallets the industry standard for cryptocurrency protection. Every sensitive operation requires physical confirmation on your device, ensuring that even if your computer is compromised, your assets remain secure.

Transaction Verification

Every outgoing transaction must be physically confirmed on your Ledger device, preventing unauthorized transfers even if your computer is infected with malware.

Secure Element Technology

Your private keys are generated and stored in certified secure chips, identical to those used in passports and credit cards, providing bank-level security for your crypto assets.
