        hash,
      }, true, ['sign', 'verify']);

      return key;
    }

      ] = await Promise.all([
        subtle.generateKey({
          name: 'HMAC', hash,
        }, true, ['sign', 'verify']),

    async function sign(key, data) {
      const ec = new TextEncoder();
      const signature =
        await subtle.sign('RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5', key, ec.encode(data));
      return signature;
    }

    async function verify(key, signature, data) {
      const ec = new TextEncoder();
      const verified =
        await subtle.verify(
          'RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5',
          key,
          signature,
          ec.encode(data));
      return verified;
    }

#### Deriving bits and keys#

    const { subtle } = globalThis.crypto;

    async function pbkdf2(pass, salt, iterations = 1000, length = 256) {
      const ec = new TextEncoder();
      const key = await subtle.importKey(
        'raw',
        ec.encode(pass),
        'PBKDF2',
        false,
        ['deriveBits']);
      const bits = await subtle.deriveBits({
        name: 'PBKDF2',
        hash: 'SHA-512',
        salt: ec.encode(salt),
        iterations,
      }, key, length);
      return bits;
    }

    async function pbkdf2Key(pass, salt, iterations = 1000, length = 256) {
      const ec = new TextEncoder();
      const keyMaterial = await subtle.importKey(
        'raw',
        ec.encode(pass),
        'PBKDF2',
        false,
        ['deriveKey']);
      const key = await subtle.deriveKey({
        name: 'PBKDF2',
        hash: 'SHA-512',
        salt: ec.encode(salt),
        iterations,
      }, keyMaterial, {
        name: 'AES-GCM',
        length,
      }, true, ['encrypt', 'decrypt']);
      return key;
    }

#### Digest#

    const { subtle } = globalThis.crypto;

    async function digest(data, algorithm = 'SHA-512') {
      const ec = new TextEncoder();
      const digest = await subtle.digest(algorithm, ec.encode(data));
      return digest;
    }

#### Checking for runtime algorithm support#

`SubtleCrypto.supports()` allows feature detection in Web Crypto API, which can be used to detect whether a given algorithm identifier (including its parameters) is supported for the given operation.

This example derives a key from a password using Argon2, if available, or PBKDF2, otherwise; and then encrypts and decrypts some text with it using AES-OCB, if available, and AES-GCM, otherwise.

    const { SubtleCrypto, crypto } = globalThis;

    const password = 'correct horse battery staple';
    const derivationAlg =
      SubtleCrypto.supports?.('importKey', 'Argon2id') ?
        'Argon2id' :
        'PBKDF2';
    const encryptionAlg =
      SubtleCrypto.supports?.('importKey', 'AES-OCB') ?
        'AES-OCB' :
        'AES-GCM';
    const passwordKey = await crypto.subtle.importKey(
      derivationAlg === 'Argon2id' ? 'raw-secret' : 'raw',
      new TextEncoder().encode(password),
      derivationAlg,
      false,
      ['deriveKey'],
    );
    const nonce = crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(16));
    const derivationParams =
      derivationAlg === 'Argon2id' ?
        {
          nonce,
          parallelism: 4,
          memory: 2 ** 21,
          passes: 1,
        } :
        {
          salt: nonce,
          iterations: 100_000,
          hash: 'SHA-256',
        };
    const key = await crypto.subtle.deriveKey(
      {
        name: derivationAlg,
        ...derivationParams,
      },
      passwordKey,
      {
        name: encryptionAlg,
        length: 256,
      },
      false,
      ['encrypt', 'decrypt'],
    );
    const plaintext = 'Hello, world!';
    const iv = crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(16));
    const encrypted = await crypto.subtle.encrypt(
      { name: encryptionAlg, iv },
      key,
      new TextEncoder().encode(plaintext),
    );
    const decrypted = new TextDecoder().decode(await crypto.subtle.decrypt(
      { name: encryptionAlg, iv },
      key,
      encrypted,
    ));

History

Version | Changes
--- | ---
v24.8.0 | KMAC algorithms are now supported.
v24.7.0 | ML-DSA algorithms are now supported.
v18.4.0, v16.17.0 | Added `'Ed25519'`, and `'Ed448'` algorithms.

- `algorithm` `<string>` | `<Algorithm>` | `<RsaPssParams>` | `<EcdsaParams>`
- `key` `<CryptoKey>`
- `data` `<ArrayBuffer>` | `<TypedArray>` | `<DataView>` | `<Buffer>`
- Returns: `<Promise>` Fulfills with an `<ArrayBuffer>` upon success.

Using the method and parameters given by `algorithm` and the keying material provided by `key`, this method attempts to generate a cryptographic signature of `data`. If successful, the returned promise is resolved with an `<ArrayBuffer>` containing the generated signature.

The algorithms currently supported include:

- `'ECDSA'`

It is the equivalent to calling `subtle.exportKey()` using `format` and `key` as the arguments, then passing the result to the `subtle.encrypt()` method using `wrappingKey` and `wrapAlgo` as inputs.
