Dec 1, 2025

December 2025 monthly summary focusing on key accomplishments in trezor-firmware: implemented Identity Key Management Reliability improvement by removing the deprecated host static public key from the EvoluGetDelegatedIdentityKey protobuf message and updating related logic to use the key stored in the channel cache. This change reduces protocol drift, strengthens security around identity provisioning, and lays groundwork for centralized key governance in firmware releases. Overall, the work enhanced robustness, traceability, and maintainability of identity key handling with clear business value in secure device identity workflows.
