Best Practices

Security Considerations

Base64 is encoding, not encryption. Never use for securing sensitive data

Performance Impact

Base64 increases data size by ~33%. Consider for large files or frequent calls

Character Encoding

Always verify UTF-8 character handling for international text and emojis

Validation

Always validate Base64 format before processing in production applications
