[Tangem Co-Founder: Ledger Security Incident Reaffirms the Security Engineering Principle of 'Complexity Expands the Attack Surface']
Tangem co-founder Andrey Lazutkin posted on X, stating that the recent Ledger security incident once again reaffirms the security engineering principle that 'complexity expands the attack surface.' He pointed out that every additional component, software layer, and user interaction—such as screens, buttons, batteries, and firmware—introduces new potential points of failure and vulnerabilities, increasing the risks that need to be identified and mitigated. Lazutkin used this to defend Tangem's minimalist card-based design, which is built solely around a secure chip and antenna, and stated that this incident has strengthened his belief in the correctness of this design philosophy.
