Base64 Encode
Base64 encoding is a way to represent binary data in a plain text fashion by converting it into characters that can be typed using a standard ASCII character set. For data that may include values that are not represented on a keyboard, base 64 encoding allows that data to be typed with only standard keyboard characters.
