This feature neutralizes 'What You See Is Not What You Sign' (WYSIWYS) attacks, ensuring your **Digital Asset Protection** remains intact, even if your computer is compromised. Ledger Live guides this process, but the hardware is the final check.
Genuine Device Check
Upon connection, Ledger Live automatically runs a proprietary authenticity check. It ensures your device is a genuine Ledger product and has not been tampered with or replaced. This continuous integrity check is a foundational element of the **Ledger Setup** process and your ongoing security.
