Trezor discontinues reseller relationships following supply-chain incidents but confirms no device security compromise.
Regulation & Gov ·
Trezor has ended relationships with a portion of its resellers following recent supply-chain incidents, according to the company. The hardware wallet maker emphasized that the move is precautionary and that no evidence indicates Trezor devices themselves have been compromised by the incidents.
The reduction in reseller partnerships is intended to allow Trezor to conduct more rigorous vetting of remaining distribution partners. The company characterized the step as one taken out of an abundance of caution in response to the supply-chain issues that prompted the decision.
What remains unclear is the scope and nature of the specific supply-chain incidents that triggered the reseller cuts, as well as the number of partnerships affected or the timeline for any future reseller recruitment.
