Base64 Encoder vs Base64Encode.org

Base64 Encoding: Privacy Matters

Base64 encoding is often used for API tokens, authentication headers, and embedded data. When you paste a JWT or API key into a server-side tool, you're essentially sharing your credentials.

Client-Side vs Server-Side

DevUtility's encoder uses the browser's native btoa() and atob() functions. Your data never leaves your device. Base64Encode.org processes data on their servers.

Which Should You Use?

If you're encoding anything remotely sensitive — API keys, tokens, passwords, personal data — always use a client-side tool. There's no reason to send secrets to a third-party server.
