Core security principles

When working with Public devices, it helps to understand how it connects with Public networks and Remote control.

The goal of Device Security is not to promise perfect security. It is to reduce avoidable exposure through repeatable checks. With Public devices, Public networks, Remote control, Malware and Clipboard risk, separate the protection of recovery material from request validation, permission review and device hygiene. These risks come from different sources, so no single password, device or confirmation step can cover every scenario.

Seed phrases and private keys should remain under the user’s control. Official personnel will not ask for them, and they should never be sent to another person together with verification codes. Suspicious requests involving Public devices, Public networks and Remote control may ask for recovery screenshots, remote-control access, unknown scripts or approvals to unfamiliar contracts. Treat those as warning signs, stop the interaction and restart from a source you have independently verified.

In practice, Public devices rarely exists in isolation. It may affect the outcome together with Public networks, or behave differently because the state of Remote control has changed. Compare interface information with public on-chain data where possible and keep the purpose of the current action clear. If a request involves a signature, approval or asset transfer, approve only what you can explain; otherwise exit and verify the source again.

Common risk scenarios

When working with Public networks, it helps to understand how it connects with Remote control and Malware.

Seed phrases and private keys should remain under the user’s control. Official personnel will not ask for them, and they should never be sent to another person together with verification codes. Suspicious requests involving Public devices, Public networks, Remote control, Malware and Clipboard risk may ask for recovery screenshots, remote-control access, unknown scripts or approvals to unfamiliar contracts. Treat those as warning signs, stop the interaction and restart from a source you have independently verified.

Risk note

Important: seed phrases and private keys remain under the user’s control, and official personnel will not ask for them. Verify the address, network and amount before sending. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed by a wallet provider. Third-party DApps and smart contracts may be risky, so review approval targets and permission scope and consider revoking permissions you no longer need.

Transactions and approvals can have lasting consequences. Mistakes involving Public networks, Remote control and Malware may be difficult or impossible to undo once submitted, so verify the address, network, amount, approval target and permission scope before confirming. Consider revoking permissions that are no longer needed. Third-party DApps and smart contracts may contain technical, operational or fraudulent risks, so each request should be evaluated on its own merits.

Quick review

  • Confirm that information related to Public devices belongs to the network or request you are actually using.
  • Confirm that information related to Public networks belongs to the network or request you are actually using.
  • Confirm that information related to Remote control belongs to the network or request you are actually using.
  • Confirm that information related to Malware belongs to the network or request you are actually using.

How to recognize suspicious requests
