Why verify at trezor.io/start?

Advanced users often want cryptographic assurance. The official page at trezor.io/start provides links to signed firmware and installation packages. Verifying checksums and signatures guards against supply-chain tampering — a rare but high-impact attack vector.

Download & signature verification

After downloading the installer referenced on trezor.io/start, obtain the corresponding .sig file if available. Use GPG or the recommended verifier to confirm the publisher’s signature. This adds an extra protective layer beyond HTTPS.

Install Trezor Bridge or WebUSB

Incident response
