Core principle: keep control secrets private, review each signature and approval, and stop when a request looks abnormal.

Device environment

“Device environment” deserves its own checkpoint when working with Device Security. It can affect network selection, account control, transaction confirmation or permission scope, so a single interface label should not be treated as the full story.

In a Device Security workflow, build a short verification chain: confirm the source, confirm the target, review the permission or amount, then verify the on-chain result. This helps prevent different networks, contracts or sessions from being mixed together.

Security starts with keeping control secrets private. A seed phrase, private key or recovery phrase should not be sent to anyone or entered on an untrusted page. Verification codes should also remain private, including from people claiming to be support staff.

After working through “Device environment,” keep only the non-sensitive references you may need later, such as a transaction hash, network name or public address. Do not store or forward a seed phrase, private key, recovery phrase or verification code.

  • Confirm the network and account related to “Device environment”
  • Verify the source or DApp domain
  • Read the actual transaction, signature or approval request
  • Check the resulting transaction state and any permissions left behind

Network environment

“Network environment” deserves its own checkpoint when working with Device Security. It can affect network selection, account control, transaction confirmation or permission scope, so a single interface label should not be treated as the full story.

In a Device Security workflow, build a short verification chain: confirm the source, confirm the target, review the permission or amount, then verify the on-chain result. This helps prevent different networks, contracts or sessions from being mixed together.

Risk often appears inside a flow that looks familiar: a look-alike domain, a broad approval, a clipboard-modified address, remote-control software or a misleading signature request. Separate the source, target, permission and expected result instead of trusting the overall appearance.

After working through “Network environment,” keep only the non-sensitive references you may need later, such as a transaction hash, network name or public address. Do not store or forward a seed phrase, private key, recovery phrase or verification code.

  • Confirm the network and account related to “Network environment”
  • Verify the source or DApp domain
  • Read the actual transaction, signature or approval request
  • Check the resulting transaction state and any permissions left behind

Clipboard and input

“Clipboard and input” deserves its own checkpoint when working with Device Security. It can affect network selection, account control, transaction confirmation or permission scope, so a single interface label should not be treated as the full story.

In a Device Security workflow, build a short verification chain: confirm the source, confirm the target, review the permission or amount, then verify the on-chain result. This helps prevent different networks, contracts or sessions from being mixed together.

If something appears abnormal, stop additional signing, approvals or transfers and review what has already happened on-chain. Permissions that are no longer needed can be considered for revocation after verifying the correct network and approval record.

After working through “Clipboard and input,” keep only the non-sensitive references you may need later, such as a transaction hash, network name or public address. Do not store or forward a seed phrase, private key, recovery phrase or verification code.

  • Confirm the network and account related to “Clipboard and input”
  • Verify the source or DApp domain
  • Read the actual transaction, signature or approval request
  • Check the resulting transaction state and any permissions left behind

Remote-control risks

“Remote-control risks” deserves its own checkpoint when working with Device Security. It can affect network selection, account control, transaction confirmation or permission scope, so a single interface label should not be treated as the full story.

In a Device Security workflow, build a short verification chain: confirm the source, confirm the target, review the permission or amount, then verify the on-chain result. This helps prevent different networks, contracts or sessions from being mixed together.

  • Confirm the network and account related to “Remote-control risks”
  • Verify the source or DApp domain
  • Read the actual transaction, signature or approval request
  • Check the resulting transaction state and any permissions left behind

Important reminder

Seed phrases and private keys should remain under the user’s control and should never be sent to anyone. On-chain transactions generally cannot be unilaterally reversed by a wallet, and third-party DApps, smart contracts, bridges or staking services can introduce technical, market and operational risks.
