(Excel) JWE using PBES2 Key Wrapping

Demonstrates how to create and decrypt a JWE that using PBES2 key wrapping.

This example demonstrates PBES2 with HMAC SHA-256 and A128KW wrapping. It is also possible to do the following by simply changing the "alg" parameter:

  • PBES2 with HMAC SHA-384 and A192KW wrapping
  • PBES2 with HMAC SHA-512 and A256KW wrapping

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or greater.

' 1) A random salt parameter ("p2s") containing 8 or more bytes in base64url format.
' 2) An iteration count parameter ("p2c").  A minimum count of 1000 is recommended.
'    The iteration count is intended to make the PBES2 computation more expensive (time consuming)
'    to prevent brute-force attacks.
