Ledger Live Security ✦ 2FA ★ Backup ⚡

Protecting your Ledger Live login means taking extra care with both digital and physical security. Since Ledger devices store your private keys offline, your safety depends on how securely you handle your hardware and recovery phrase.

1. Protect Your 24-Word Recovery Phrase

Never share or type your recovery phrase on any device. Write it down on paper and store it in multiple secure locations. Losing this phrase means losing access to your assets permanently.

2. Verify Authentic Ledger Live Apps

Only download Ledger Live from the official ledger.com website. Avoid unofficial downloads or third-party websites offering clones.

3. Enable Additional Security

Use biometric or password locks on your mobile app. Always check your Ledger’s screen when confirming transactions.

4. Avoid Phishing Links

Ledger will never ask for your recovery phrase online. Bookmark the official Ledger domain to avoid scams.

5. Regularly Update Firmware

Keep your Ledger hardware wallet firmware up to date for the latest security patches and compatibility improvements.
