Proper Method for Storing User Data on the Client Side in React for Authentication

I'm developing a React application and need to securely store logged-in user information on the client side for authentication purposes. I'm currently exploring options such as localStorage, sessionStorage, and state management libraries like Redux. My concern is to ensure data privacy and security while maintaining efficient performance. I'm seeking guidance on the recommended approach to handle this situation effectively within the React ecosystem. Are there any industry best practices or established patterns for managing user data on the client side? Thank you for your insights and advice!
