Hello I am a JavaScript noob, I was wondering if window.btoa(); in JavaScript secure? I cannot seem to find a good encryption program in JavaScript so i would like to use this function built into JavaScript

    What are you trying to encrypt? For 99.99% of the cases, browser-based encryption is a Bad Idea for multiple reasons. If you explain why you are trying to encrypt and why, perhaps we can suggest a better approach. – Jeremy J Starcher Aug 17 '14 at 01:52
  • `btoa ()` is not an encryption tool. In that regard it is not secure in any way. –  Aug 17 '14 at 01:53
