# Ledger

> Now You're in Control. 

Ledger is a hardware wallet company that provides secure storage and management for digital assets. Its devices and companion software protect private keys offline for individuals and institutions.

Ledger is a company that designs hardware wallets and software for storing and managing digital assets. Its devices keep private keys offline in a dedicated secure chip, reducing exposure to malware and remote attacks compared to software-only wallets. The accompanying application lets users buy, sell, swap, and track a range of supported cryptocurrencies and tokens from a single interface.

The company addresses the risk of key exposure inherent in exchange accounts and hot wallets by keeping signing operations on a separate physical device that never exposes the private key to a connected computer or phone. Transactions must be manually verified and approved on the device screen, which limits the impact of malware on the host machine. This self-custody approach is aimed at users who want direct control over their assets rather than relying on a custodial intermediary.

Ledger offers a lineup of hardware wallets alongside its companion app, which supports staking, earning yield, and connecting to decentralized applications. For organizations, Ledger Enterprise provides custody, governance, and operational tooling for managing digital assets at scale. The company serves individual holders, developers, and institutions such as funds and financial firms that need secure storage across multiple blockchains and assets.
