I need to store passwords in the HTML5 LocalStorage (No, I can’t use hashes and I can’t ask the user to type his password).
What is the most secure way to do this? I understand that this can never be really safe, but I’m just looking to secure this as much as possible.
Can you do encryption in JavaScript? If yes, what is the best encryption algorithm for this task?
