Trezor announced the release of a new security update that provides advanced protection for its digital wallets against the risks of quantum computing.
The company stated that the new firmware version is numbered 3.0, and relies on post-quantum encryption techniques officially approved by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.
This update comes at a time when warnings are escalating about the future capabilities of quantum computers to break traditional encryption systems used to protect digital assets.
Trezor confirmed that the integration of the new algorithms was done in collaboration with international encryption experts, and after successfully testing them at the hardware level and the supporting devices.
This development represents a significant step in the race to secure cold wallets, and reflects the transition of some companies from theoretical warnings to practical implementation.
