Security Features
The SecuX V20 incorporates multiple layers of security to protect your digital assets.

- Tamper-Resistant Packaging: The device comes in packaging designed to show any signs of tampering, ensuring the product's integrity upon arrival.

- Hands-on Clear-Sign: All transactions require physical authorization on the device, with clear display of transaction details on the large touchscreen. This prevents malware from altering transaction information.
