The wallet maker also said 25,964 buyer records exposed in the breach still held names and addresses, some beyond its 180-day retention limit. Hardware wallet maker Keystone said in an October 26 post on X that it will destroy 18,835 devices sitting in its inventory after the intruder behind its website breach also obtained the WebAuth key that underpins its device-authenticity checks. The danger lies in how the key works. Keystone burns it into its devices during manufacturing and cannot erase or rewrite it later.
