Hack security and online privacy with La Crème de la crème of Bitcoin Cryptography and the new TREZOR wallet.

Put your hands on the prototypes of TREZOR 2 and its entirely new software stack.

For 50 hours straight, dive into new realms of online security and privacy. You will be guided and mentored by four of the most renowned security hackers and crypto experts - Andreas M. Antonopoulos, Johoe, Slush and Stick.

WHAT IS TREZOR?

TREZOR pioneered end-user Bitcoin security and established itself as the quality benchmark for hardware wallet security since its official launch in 2014. TREZOR is the most trusted and ubiquitous bitcoin hardware wallet in the world with customers in 100 countries. But TREZOR is much more than an ultimately secure bitcoin wallet!

Last year, TREZOR introduced the passwordless login to websites with an easy to integrate TREZOR Connect API. TREZOR may also be used for secure SSH login or admin access to Wordpress websites. Recently we have introduced TREZOR Password Manager, another security application for TREZOR. 

TREZOR 2 IS COMING!

The next generation of TREZOR introduces new and exciting hardware features and a completely revamped software stack.

TREZOR 2 is a personal security device ideal for protecting digital money, smart assets, online privacy and great for encrypting documents, data or communication - all with a simple button click.

Our new software stack opens up some great opportunities for developers: with a basic knowledge of JavaScript or Python, you can create just about any application with TREZOR-level security or integrate TREZOR as a security component to your favorite service:

• Protecting digital money with TREZOR: make websites and services managing bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, DASH and other cryptocurrencies more secure. 
• Protecting digital identity: any websites dealing with private or sensitive user information will benefit from integrating TREZOR.
• Protecting data: encrypt documents and communication with TREZOR with a simple button-press.
