Security in trust wallet (Trust Wallet / Trust/Wallet) centers on private key ownership: private keys are generated and stored locally on the device and are never transmitted to Trust Wallet servers.

The organization publishes security writeups and pursues independent audits. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
