What it does
The Ledger website names Ledger SAS, of Paris, France, in its copyright notice. It is a device maker, not a bank or custodian. The October 2026 thefts concern devices sold through a third-party reseller, and Ledger has said its internal systems and direct sales channels were not compromised; that is a company statement.
