1. Installing SafeVault Bridge

Download the SafeVault Bridge installer from official sources. Confirm the integrity using checksums. Install on your operating system and ensure the app has required permissions.

Connect your hardware wallet via USB and follow prompts for device detection and firmware updates. Never download from unverified sources.

Always verify your device connection. Enable strong PINs and passwords for wallet access. Never share recovery seeds or private keys. Use trusted networks and avoid public Wi-Fi during transactions.

Two-Factor Authentication

Enable 2FA for associated accounts or apps interacting with the bridge. This adds an extra layer of protection against unauthorized access.

Software Updates

Keep Bridge software and hardware wallet firmware updated. Regular updates patch vulnerabilities and ensure compatibility.

  • Enable notifications for wallet interactions.

SafeVault Bridge ensures your private keys remain offline while allowing secure access to supported applications.

4. Troubleshooting Common Issues

If the hardware wallet is not detected, check USB cables, ports, and device firmware. Restart the Bridge application. Ensure the operating system has up-to-date drivers.

For persistent issues, contact verified support channels. Never share private keys or recovery seeds during troubleshooting.

5. Backup and Recovery

Keep recovery seeds securely offline. Test backup restoration on a separate device periodically. Maintain multiple copies in fireproof, secure locations.
