5. A method for utilizing service workers to obfuscate application data associated with web applications, the method comprising:
receiving, with a first application, first application data, wherein the first application data is received for use by a second application that is executed within the first application;
invoking, by the first application, a third application, wherein the third application is enabled to communicate with the first application and the second application;
extracting, using the third application from the first application data, identification data associated with a user, wherein the first application data is transformed into modified first application data that does not include the identification data;
encrypting, by the third application, the identification data into encrypted identification data;
storing, by the third application, the encrypted identification data by passing the encrypted identification data to the first application to be stored in storage shared amongst the second application and other applications executing within the first application, wherein the first application is a web browsing application; and
providing the modified first application data to the second application.
