Platform specific information
iOS
This plugin uses the SimpleKeychain Swift library for iOS.
Android
On Android, it is implemented using AndroidKeyStore, SharedPreferences, and EncryptedSharedPreferences for enhanced security. This approach uses modern encryption standards to ensure data security on devices with Android Marshmallow and above.
Web
There is no secure storage in browser (not because it is not implemented by this plugin, but it does not exist at all). Values are stored in LocalStorage, but they are at least base64 encoded. Plugin adds 'capsec' prefix to keys to avoid conflicts with other data stored in LocalStorage.
