Treźór® Bridge is a crucial communication tool that connects your Treźór® hardware wallet to your browser through supported apps like Treźór® Suite. It serves as a secure bridge between your physical device and your online interface, allowing seamless interaction without exposing sensitive data.

Unlike browser extensions, Treźór® Bridge runs as a lightweight background service on your computer. Once installed, it automatically detects your Treźór® device and connects it to supported web apps, creating a fast, secure, and smooth experience for managing digital assets.

Security Advantages of Treźór® Bridge

The core reason Treźór® Bridge exists is to protect the user from browser-based risks. Here’s how it elevates your crypto safety:

  • No need for browser extensions, which are vulnerable to phishing and spoofing
  • Direct communication with the physical wallet, not with the browser tab
  • Prevents man-in-the-middle attacks and ensures confirmation on the device
  • Verifies every transaction on-screen, so you’re in control of every move

This makes it ideal for users managing high-value assets or operating within decentralized finance (DeFi) environments.

  • Support for multi-account setups and passphrase protection

Treźór® Bridge keeps your connection robust, even when working across multiple blockchains.

Troubleshooting Treźór® Bridge

If your Treźór® device isn’t being recognized, or your browser isn’t communicating, follow these steps:

  • Ensure Treźór® Bridge is running (check system tray or background tasks)
  • Restart your browser
  • Reconnect your hardware device
  • Update Treźór® Suite and Bridge to the latest versions
