Building Institutional-Grade Operational Security: Utila Integrates Blockaid Cosigner

Utila is expanding its security capabilities by offering customers the option to adopt Blockaid Cosigner directly within their MPC wallet workflows. This collaboration brings together Utila’s enterprise custody and policy controls with Blockaid’s real-time transaction classification, simulation, and threat-intelligence engine.

When adopted, Cosigner analyzes transactions before they reach approval, classifies intent, simulates outcomes onchain, and surfaces relevant risk indicators. This gives treasury teams, fintechs, and stablecoin issuers a clearer view of what each transaction will do—helping them maintain institutional security standards without slowing execution.

Raising the Bar for Institutional Digital-Asset Operations

As institutional adoption of digital assets accelerates, operational security has become central to trust. Treasury teams, stablecoin issuers, and fintechs now move billions in value daily, demanding safeguards that match the scale and complexity of their operations.

Utila and Blockaid share the belief that institutions shouldn’t have to choose between blockchain speed and robust security. Through this integration path, Utila customers who choose to enable Blockaid Cosigner gain an additional layer of independent transaction analysis directly inside their existing MPC workflows.

The Critical Gap in Digital Asset Operations

Digital asset operations move faster and involve more complexity than traditional finance:

• Transactions finalize in seconds
• Smart contracts introduce new behaviors and risk
• Transfers are irreversible

Institutional teams today face a difficult trade-off:

• Move slowly and add manual review bottlenecks, or
• Move fast and accept elevated operational risk

Utila’s support for Blockaid Cosigner helps reduce that trade-off. By incorporating real-time validation and intelligence before approvals, institutions gain the confidence to move quickly with safeguards in place.

How Blockaid Cosigner Transforms Transaction Security

Utila and Blockaid share a vision of secure, transparent, and efficient digital-asset operations. By choosing to connect their Utila wallet to the Cosigner architecture, it is made possible for institutions to seamlessly verify not only who signs each transaction, but what it will actually do once executed.

The benefit our joint customers would get is Blockaid Cosigner functioning as an independent validation layer that sits between transaction creation and execution. Rather than simply verifying signatures and basic parameters, it performs comprehensive pre-execution analysis that gives institutions complete visibility into what will actually happen when a transaction executes onchain.

Before approval, Blockaid Cosigner:

• Simulates the full transaction onchain, showing how assets and contracts are affected
• Validates outcomes against threat-intelligence signals and organization-defined policies
• Enforces rules automatically, allowing or flagging transactions based on pre-set thresholds

This delivers confident, policy-driven automation, without adding friction to existing treasury or operations workflows.

Institutional adoption of digital assets requires infrastructure that surpasses the security and operational standards of traditional finance while embracing blockchain's efficiency advantages. Our integration with Blockaid gives treasury teams the confidence to move quickly without compromising on safety. This partnership represents exactly the kind of collaborative innovation that accelerates enterprise adoption - specialized partners working together to solve real institutional challenges, said Bentzi Rabi, Co-Founder & CEO of Utila.

Enabling Cosigner for Utila customers brings our simulation and threat intelligence capabilities into an institutional-grade custody environment, creating a comprehensive security framework that matches how modern treasury teams actually operate. We're excited to partner with Utila to set a new standard for operational security in digital asset infrastructure, said Ido Ben-Natan, Co-Founder & CEO of Blockaid.

Why This Matters

Institutional wallets have evolved from secure key storage into full-scale operational hubs. This partnership strengthens that evolution - pairing Utila's modular custody and policy controls with Blockaid's onchain intelligence to deliver deterministic assurance for every approval.

For Utila users who chooses to adopt Cosigner, it means faster decisions, stronger compliance alignment, and complete clarity into every transaction's intent and outcome:

• Treasury teams can move with confidence, knowing that every transaction has been validated against both organizational policies and the broader threat landscape.
• Compliance officers gain automated controls and comprehensive audit trails that meet regulatory requirements without slowing operations. 
• Risk managers benefit from proactive threat detection that identifies issues before they become incidents.

The integration represents a fundamental shift in how institutions approach digital asset security - from reactive monitoring to proactive validation, from manual review to automated intelligence, and from isolated point solutions to integrated operational platforms.
