Kaikas is a browser extension that provides a secure and user-friendly way to interact with the Klaytn network from websites. Specifically, it handles account management and connects users to the blockchain. Kaikas supports Chrome on Windows, Mac, and Linux. You can download Kaikas for Chrome here.
Kaikas allows users to manage accounts and their keys in various ways while keeping them isolated from the website context. Compared to storing user keys on a single centralized server or even in local storage, this is a significant security improvement that helps prevent large-scale account theft.
This security model also benefits developers: as a developer, you only need to interact with the globally available Klaytn API, which recognizes users with caver-compatible browsers (Caver is Klaytn's JavaScript library, similar to Ethereum's web3). Whenever you request a transaction signature, Kaikas will prompt the user for confirmation and notify them accordingly. Since keys are not stored centrally, attackers are more likely to attempt phishing individual users rather than conducting large-scale hacks.
