- Download only from official sources and use bookmarks.
- Verify checksums/signatures of downloads when available.
- Never enter or share your 24-word recovery phrase.

If you suspect compromise
Disconnect the device, stop approving transactions, and contact Ledger Support. Use Ledger’s official support channels rather than links provided in emails or social media.
