Basics

"Kraken Security Lab said crypto hardware wallet KeepKey is not doing enough to protect customers from physical attacks, saying it was able to get into the system using a $75 device. “All that is required is physical access to the wallet for about 15 minutes,” the firm said in a blog post

Kraken Security Lab said KeepKey is already aware of similar physical attacks, but seems to be focusing more on protecting users’ keys from remote attacks, citing a statement from KeepKey’s parent Shapeshift on June 13."

"The KeepKey is a simple hardware wallet with a premium design and feel. Designed to be easily accessible, the KeepKey allows users to store most popular cryptocurrencies in cold storage and exchange assets directly on the device thanks to its built-in ShapeShift functionality.

As one of the cheapest hardware wallets on this list, the KeepKey provides excellent bang for the buck, particularly for those that don't need top-end features."
