Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for locally storing Web-based database data in a secure manner. Embodiments of the present invention permit Web-based database data to be locally stored at a computer system to increase the efficiency of rendering the Web-based database data within a Web browser at the computer system. Web-based database data can be sandboxed per domain to mitigate (and possibly eliminate) the exposure of the Web-based database data to malicious computer systems. A web server may be required to authenticate itself before it may present database data to be locally stored at a computer system. A web server may be required to authenticate itself before being allowed to access database data stored locally at a computer system.
