摘要：In recent years, the web browser has taken over
many roles of the traditional operating system, such as acting as
a host platform for web applications. Web browser storage,
where the web applications can save data locally was one of the
new functionalities added in HTML5. However, web
functionality has increased significantly since HTML5 was
introduced. As web functionality increased, so did the threats
facing web users. One of the most prevalent threats was the
user’s privacy violations. This study examines the existing
security issues related to the usage of web browser storage and
proposes a new model to secure the data saved in the browser’s
storage. The model was designed and implemented as a web
browser extension to secure the saved data. The model was
experimentally demonstrated and the result was evaluated.
