🔒 Trezor Suite Security Features
1. Passphrase Protection
If you want to go the extra mile in securing your wallet, Trezor Suite allows you to use a passphrase. This is an additional word or string of characters that acts as a second layer of security. It creates an entirely new, hidden wallet that requires both your PIN and the passphrase to access.

Keeping your device’s firmware updated is essential for maintaining security. Trezor Suite will notify you whenever there’s a firmware update available, ensuring that your device is protected against the latest threats.
