Secure browser access — official resources at trustwallet.com/browser-extension

trust wallet extension enables secure desktop interactions with blockchain networks while keeping your private keys in your control. This split-screen layout presents a security-focused primer on the left and practical usage guidance on the right. The left column covers threat models, best practices, and steps to harden your environment when using the extension.

Threat model & hardening

Browser compromises: Keep the browser updated and avoid installing unnecessary extensions that increase the attack surface for your trust wallet extension.
Phishing: Only use official links and verify domains. Trust wallet extension will never ask you to share your recovery phrase in a website form.
Seed exposure: Paper backups or encrypted offline storage are recommended; take multiple copies stored securely.

Advanced security tips

Consider using separate browser profiles for high-value wallets and casual browsing to reduce cross-site risks.
Revoke token approvals and audit allowances periodically.
For institutional or high-value use, prefer hardware wallets for signature operations and keep the trust wallet extension for less critical interactions.
