• SecureDApp launches SecureTrace, an AI-driven blockchain forensic platform for law enforcement and enterprises.
  • Platform offers real-time, cross-chain tracing to combat $2B+ in crypto crimes reported in H1 2025.
  • Developed with IIT Kanpur’s C3iHub, SecureTrace has already proven effective in live investigations.

SecureDApp, an IIT Kanpur-backed blockchain cybersecurity startup, has launched SecureTrace, an AI-driven blockchain forensic platform aimed at tackling the surge in Web3 financial crimes.

The platform was unveiled at Connect 1.0 – C3iHub Startup Demo Day 2025 in Delhi, highlighting its role as a critical tool for law enforcement, regulators, financial institutions, and blockchain enterprises.

With crypto-related hacks and scams siphoning off more than $2 billion in the first half of 2025 alone, the launch comes at a time of urgent demand for advanced investigative solutions. Traditional forensic methods—limited to single chains, slow to deploy, and hampered by compliance issues—have proved inadequate against increasingly sophisticated and cross-chain financial crimes.

SecureTrace seeks to fill this gap with real-time, cross-chain tracing and compliance-ready reporting. Its capabilities include transaction pattern analysis, graph-based forensic mapping, chronological reconstruction, and entity clustering. These features allow investigators to visualize complex fund flows, detect anomalies, and identify coordinated illicit activities at scale.

“With SecureTrace, we are redefining blockchain forensics by enabling investigations that once took weeks to be initiated in real time, across multiple chains, with compliance-ready evidence,” said Abhishek Singh, Co-Founder of SecureDApp.

He added that the platform is among the first indigenous, enterprise-grade forensic tools in India, the Middle East, and Africa, built to meet global compliance standards while providing scalability and speed.

Developed in collaboration with IIT Kanpur’s C3iHub, SecureTrace has already been tested in real-world scenarios, including the successful tracing of stolen funds from a hacked smart contract. Its security-first design ensures investigative integrity, making it suitable for high-stakes financial crime probes.

The launch positions SecureDApp as a full-spectrum blockchain security provider. Alongside SecureWatch (a proactive threat prevention tool), SecureTrace adds post-incident forensic capabilities, strengthening the company’s mission to make decentralized ecosystems safer and more transparent.
