HR & Payroll

Protect Salary Fields in HR & Payroll from Analytics

In hr & payroll, salary is one of the most targeted data types. Standard HTML inputs expose it to analytics capture attacks. SmartField encrypts it at the keystroke level.

The Risk

Salary entered in a standard form is immediately accessible:

// Analytics attack: document.querySelector('input').value // "Salary data here" ← stolen

The Fix

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

Now the same attack returns AES-256-GCM encrypted data. The salary 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 salary in hr & payroll?+
SmartField encrypts salary at the keystroke level using AES-256-GCM. The data never exists as plaintext in the browser DOM. Analytics Protection is achieved through 13 independent security layers including closed Shadow DOM and WeakMap isolation.
Can analytics capture attacks steal salary?+
Not with SmartField. The .value property returns encrypted payloads only. The real salary is stored in a WeakMap inside a closed Shadow DOM, invisible to any JavaScript including analytics capture 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.
