WorkerGlobalScope: crypto property - Web APIs

WorkerGlobalScope: crypto property

Baseline Widely available

Note: This feature is only available in Web Workers.

The crypto read-only property of the WorkerGlobalScope interface returns the Crypto object for this worker. This object gives workers access to certain cryptographic related services.

Although the property itself is read-only, all of its methods (and the methods of its child object, SubtleCrypto) are not read-only, and therefore vulnerable to attack by polyfill.

Although crypto is available on all workers, the returned Crypto object only has one usable feature in insecure contexts: the getRandomValues() method. In general, you should use this API only in secure contexts.

Value

An instance of the Crypto interface, providing access to general-purpose cryptography and a strong random-number generator.

Examples

See the example on the page for Window.crypto, which uses the crypto property to access the getRandomValues() method.
