Text to Base64
🔹 What is Base64 Encoding?
Base64 encoding is a method of converting plain text or binary data into an ASCII string format. This technique is widely used in data transfer over the internet where textual data must be encoded to be safely transmitted, especially in email attachments, embedded images, JSON, and XML.
Base64 ensures that all characters remain intact without getting corrupted during transmission. It encodes text into characters from a standard 64-character set (A–Z, a–z, 0–9, +, and /), making it safe to use across different platforms and protocols.

🔐 Is Base64 Secure?
Base64 is not a secure encryption method. It's simply an encoding scheme meant to safely transmit data. While it hides content from plain sight, it can easily be decoded. For secure purposes, always combine it with encryption if needed.
