Secure Connection Protocol

Connect Your Trezor to
Web Browsers

Trezor Bridge is a lightweight communication software that enables seamless interaction between your Trezor hardware wallet and web browsers. Experience secure cryptocurrency management with enterprise-grade encryption and protection.

What is Trezor Bridge?

Trezor Bridge is an essential communication interface that acts as a secure bridge between your Trezor hardware wallet and your computer's web browser. This sophisticated software eliminates the need for browser extensions while maintaining the highest security standards in the cryptocurrency industry.

The Bridge operates as a lightweight background service, automatically detecting your connected Trezor device and establishing a secure communication channel. This allows web-based applications like Trezor Suite to interact with your hardware wallet without compromising your private keys or sensitive information.

Unlike traditional browser plugins that can be vulnerable to security exploits, Trezor Bridge runs as a native application on your operating system, providing an additional layer of isolation and protection. This architecture ensures that your cryptocurrency transactions remain secure even if your browser is compromised.
