Delve into the sophisticated security features of modern Web APIs, comparing HTML5 technologies to traditional alternatives across key areas like cross-domain communication, client-side persistence, in-browser communication, and clickjacking protection. Learn how CORS, LocalStorage, PostMessage, and X-Frames-Options offer more secure solutions than their predecessors. Gain insights into additional browser security capabilities such as Content Security Policies, Sandboxed iFrames, and Strict-Transport Security.
