Load a JWE from a String

See more JSON Web Encryption (JWE) Examples

Demonstrates Jwe.LoadJwe, which loads a JWE from its compact serialization string so it can be decrypted.

Background. JWE (JSON Web Encryption) protects content with a content-encryption algorithm (the header enc value) while the content-encryption key is managed by the key-management algorithm (the header alg value). This example uses AES key wrapping with a symmetric wrapping key.
