BitsLab announced the acquisition of the KEKKAI Plugin (a security browser extension) from Japanese Web3 infrastructure company KEKKAI Labs, and will rename it to BitsLab Safe.
KEKKAI Labs is a Japanese technology team focused on Web3 security and infrastructure development, long dedicated to providing crypto users with security services such as transaction protection and phishing detection. Its core product, the KEKKAI Plugin, has gained a strong reputation and high usage rate in the Japanese and Asian markets, and is considered one of the region’s representative Web3 user security tools.
Through this acquisition, BitsLab will retain the original security features and user base of the KEKKAI Plugin, while introducing its own technological capabilities in AI-driven security analysis and threat detection to expand and upgrade the product’s functionality and intelligence.
This integration will enable BitsLab to provide more real-time risk identification and protection during user transactions, further enhancing the security experience and defense efficiency on the browser side. It also marks BitsLab’s official expansion from focusing on Web3 B-end security services to the C-end user security field, forming a more comprehensive security protection system from underlying infrastructure to end users.
BitsLab Safe: AI-Driven Web3 Security Browser Plugin
After this acquisition, BitsLab will officially rename the KEKKAI Plugin to BitsLab Safe, and plans to inject BitsLab’s self-developed AI analysis and threat detection capabilities into the solid foundation of the original product, aiming to build a more intelligent Web3 user security protection system.
BitsLab Safe is a free browser security plugin designed for ordinary users. The plugin can automatically simulate transactions before they are executed in wallets (such as Metamask), display the results in advance, and issue warnings when dangerous contracts or malicious operations are detected, helping users effectively avoid asset losses.
Core features include:
-
Phishing website protection and alerts: Automatically identifies phishing scam sites and blocks user access.
-
Transaction simulation and risk detection: Simulates and analyzes transactions before execution to reveal potential risks in advance.
-
Community-built security database: Users can proactively report scams, update risk data in real time, and improve overall protection levels.
BitsLab stated that after completing the acquisition and brand integration, BitsLab Safe will become an important part of its AI security ecosystem, providing Web3 users with a more intelligent, real-time, and transparent security protection experience, and helping to build a decentralized network environment where “everyone can use it with peace of mind.”
From B-End to C-End: Strategic Upgrade of BitsLab’s Security Landscape
Since its establishment, BitsLab has focused on security audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability mining as its core business, providing professional security assurance services for top global Web3 projects, covering mainstream ecosystems such as Sui, Aptos, TON, Linea, BNB Chain, and Solana. To date, BitsLab has provided security solutions for over 400 projects, audited more than 400,000 lines of code, safeguarded assets worth over 8 billions USD, and served more than 2 million Web3 users worldwide.
In addition to regular audits, the BitsLab team has also achieved remarkable results in penetration testing and vulnerability research. The team has won awards in international CTF competitions multiple times and has discovered numerous critical and high-risk vulnerabilities in major public chains and protocols, including TON, Aptos, Sui, OKX, Nervos, and Cosmos, assisting the official teams in fixing them and gaining industry recognition.
These achievements have further established BitsLab’s position as a leading Web3 security technology provider, laying a solid foundation for its expansion into C-end security.
The acquisition and renaming of the KEKKAI Plugin to BitsLab Safe means that BitsLab is extending its security capabilities from developers and institutions to ordinary users, building a comprehensive Web3 security protection network “from code to wallet, from enterprise to individual.”
Empowering a New Web3 Security Landscape with AI
BitsLab stated that the launch of BitsLab Safe will be an important starting point for its C-end security strategy. The team plans to leverage BitsLab’s self-developed AI security engine to conduct deep learning analysis of Web3 user behavior, transaction data, and risk models, thereby providing more intelligent and precise real-time protection at the browser level.
BitsLab aims to improve the security and trust standards of Web3 through technological innovation.
The release of BitsLab Safe marks a key stage in the company’s expansion from enterprise-level security to user-level protection.
In the future, BitsLab will continue to deepen the integration of AI and blockchain security technologies, promote the automation and intelligence of risk identification, threat analysis, and attack defense, and build more efficient and transparent security infrastructure.
This strategic layout not only allows ordinary users to obtain visual security feedback in daily transactions, but also injects a stronger layer of security trust into the entire Web3 ecosystem. BitsLab believes that only by prioritizing security can Web3 achieve true mass adoption and sustainable development.
