Trezor Bridge

Secure communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and web browser

🔗 What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight background service that enables secure communication between your Trezor hardware wallet and your web browser.

It acts as a secure bridge that allows the Trezor Wallet interface and other web applications to interact with your Trezor device without requiring browser extensions.

This service runs locally on your computer and facilitates the encrypted data exchange needed to manage your cryptocurrencies safely.

⚙️ How It Works

Trezor Bridge establishes a secure local connection between the Trezor Wallet web interface and your physical Trezor device.

When you connect your Trezor to your computer, the Bridge service detects the device and enables the web interface to send and receive encrypted commands.

All sensitive operations, including private key transactions, remain securely on your Trezor device - the Bridge only facilitates communication without accessing your private keys.
