Description
I'm working on a WebView2 application that displays a model-viewer and is used to be a Live 3D Viewer.
I've noticed that the cache of WebView2 is completely unencrypted, so the files that are saved in cache can just be renamed and opened in any 3D program. This is a huge issue if we're talking about artists' rights.
Specifically when talking about 3D Models.
Would be awesome to have a build-in encryption/decryption system in WebView2, that encrypts cache immediately after the process and decrypts when accessing.
I had to make myself a system where I do exactly that, but I don't think that it's that good that WebView2 downloads everything to local disk without any encryption to the files.
Is that how normal browsers such as Chrome, Edge, Firefox do it?
