Problems in Ledger's Security
Hardware wallets are not immune to attacks. Here are some critical risks.
Data Breach Risk
Ledger has suffered data breaches exposing customer information, making users targets for phishing attacks and physical threats.
Vulnerability in Recover Service
Features like Ledger Recover have raised concerns about the possibility of extracting private keys from the secure element, compromising the core promise of hardware isolation.
ZNS: The Safest <br/> Alternative
At ZNS, your recovery keys and phrases are never stored locally, eliminating the risk of losing access to your funds or hardware failure. We use ZK Face Proof and Biometric Root of Trust to ensure maximum security and privacy without the hassle of a physical device.
