clientsession[edit]
clientsession encrypts and hashes data so it can be stored in a cookie safely. This allows you to have very scalable user sessions: you can use multiple servers, and they need only share the encryption key. Achieves security through AES encryption and MD5 hashing. Uses base64 encoding to avoid any issues with characters.
