About KA13 Security Labs

We are building mobile security that does not ask you to trust us with your data.

Mission

Mobile security should not mean handing your data to a company and hoping for the best. It should not stress you out with constant alerts. And you should not need a security degree to understand what is happening on your phone.

We are building Baselyt to be calm, clear, and private. Security that works without surveillance.

Principles

Privacy-first, always

We will never compromise on metadata-only, local-first architecture. Privacy is how the whole system is built, not a feature added on top.

Explainability over black boxes

If Baselyt flags something, you will know exactly why. No mysterious "threat detected" with zero context.

Minimal permissions

We only request the permissions absolutely necessary for core functionality.

User control

You control your data, your settings, and what gets shared. We give you the tools, you make the decisions.

Why "KA13"?

KA13 comes from "Kai Shan" (開山), meaning "open mountain" or "clearing a path" in Mandarin. In Chinese tradition, it refers to founding something new: establishing a route where none existed before.

The name reflects how we approach mobile security: clearing a path through noise, establishing firm privacy boundaries, and building deliberately.

Current status

KA13 Security Labs is a small team focused on getting Baselyt right before thinking about scale. We share our roadmap publicly and write about what we are building on our blog.

Baselyt is pre-release software. We are currently working on the VPN containment engine. If you want to follow along or get early access, join the waitlist.
