Curated readings & security advisories
The Ledger Blog often posts about new security features and product changes; subscribe to it for release notes and new features such as MEV protections or new chain integrations. Ledger’s support portal lists release notes and "What's new" pages. For independent reporting and security incident coverage, reputable tech publications have reported on fake Ledger installers and malware campaigns — treat such reports as an impetus to re-confirm your downloads' integrity. :contentReference[oaicite:43]{index=43}
How to verify a download (brief)
1. Download both the installer and the checksum/signature file from the official ledger.com page. 2. Use your OS utilities or `sha512sum`/`shasum` to compute the file checksum. Compare it against the published value. 3. For PGP signatures, use a known Ledger release public key to verify the signature. Ledger's signature page contains the needed artifacts and instructions. :contentReference[oaicite:44]{index=44}
