Web Crypto API

The Web Crypto API is a W3C-standardized native browser cryptographic interface that invokes cryptographic primitives provided by the operating system or browser engine. It supports algorithms such as AES-GCM and PBKDF2, offering better performance and security than pure JavaScript cryptographic libraries. It has been supported by major browsers since Chrome 37 and Firefox 34.
