# Security

Kuma Wallet is designed with security as its top priority. To ensure the safety of users' assets, we have implemented the Keyring concept from MetaMask, which is the core of the secret storing and account management system in MetaMask. This approach ensures that private keys are stored locally on users' devices, making them accessible only to the user.

Moreover, we have utilized encryption techniques, similar to those used by MetaMask, such as PBKDF2 iteration and AES-GCM mode, to provide an extra layer of security for private keys. These encryption techniques ensure that private keys are protected even if the device is lost or stolen.

In addition to encryption, Kuma Wallet also provides a feature that allows users to see the availability of different parachains before they make a transfer. This feature, which was implemented from Polkadot's extension, provides users with an added layer of security and peace of mind, as they can ensure that their transfer will go through smoothly.
