Protect Income Data Fields in Government from XSS

In government, income data is one of the most targeted data types. Standard HTML inputs expose it to xss attacks. SmartField encrypts it at the keystroke level.

The Risk

Income Data entered in a standard form is immediately accessible:

// XSS attack: document.querySelector('input').value // "Income Data data here" ← stolen

The Fix

<smart-field type="password" encrypt-key="/api/sf-key" placeholder="income data"></smart-field>

Now the same attack returns AES-256-GCM encrypted data. The income data never exists as plaintext in the browser.

What the Attacker Gets

document.querySelector('smart-field').value // "eyJ2IjoxLCJpdiI6IkNxT3..." ← 600+ chars of encrypted gibberish

Useless without your server's RSA-2048 private key.

Compliance

SmartField uses NIST-approved algorithms: AES-256-GCM (SP 800-38D) and RSA-2048 (SP 800-56B). Compatible with PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, SOX, and FISMA requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does SmartField protect income data in government?+
SmartField encrypts income data at the keystroke level using AES-256-GCM. The data never exists as plaintext in the browser DOM. XSS Protection is achieved through 13 independent security layers including closed Shadow DOM and WeakMap isolation.
Can xss attacks steal income data?+
Not with SmartField. The .value property returns encrypted payloads only. The real income data is stored in a WeakMap inside a closed Shadow DOM, invisible to any JavaScript including xss attacks.
How do I implement this?+
Replace your standard input with smart-field. 2 lines of HTML. Install the server SDK (Node.js, Python, Java, Go, PHP, or Ruby) to decrypt on your backend.
