How to store a json data securely in phonegap android?

I am developing an android app in phonegap. I have to store a json data that should be secured. The json contains authentication keys and tokens so it should not expose. So I cant store it to any kind of javascript local storages. Is there any other way to save data securely ?

Better to use android Shared preference, you can set it by plugin. Here are the steps :

1 In your javascript add this

function storeJSON(JSON_String){

      cordova.exec(function() {
           //CALLBACK SUCCESS
        }, function(error) {
           //ERROR CALLBACK                    
        }, "YOUR_CUSTOM_CLASS", [JSON_String,"SET"]);
}

function getJSON(){

      cordova.exec(function(Json) {
           //CALLBACK SUCCESS
           alert(Json);
        }, function(error) {
           //ERROR CALLBACK                    
        }, "YOUR_CUSTOM_CLASS", ["","GET"]);
}

2 Create Java class YOUR_CUSTOM_CLASS. Download

3 In config.xml add this

<feature name="YOUR_CUSTOM_CLASS">
     <param name="android-package" value="yourpackage.YOUR_CUSTOM_CLASS" />
</feature>
