• Only download Suite from the official Trezor site. There have been reports of users accidentally using phishing or fake versions. Reddit
• If Suite asks for your recovery seed in any suspicious way, be very cautious — this is a common sign of malicious software. > Some users on Reddit reported fake apps prompting for seeds. Reddit+1
• Regularly update both the Suite app and your device’s firmware for security patches and new features.
• You can route traffic through Tor for better anonymity. trezor.io
