Encrypt Binary Content to a JWE
See more JSON Web Encryption (JWE) Examples
Demonstrates Jwe.EncryptBd, which encrypts binary content held in a BinData and writes the resulting JWE into a StringBuilder.
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.Chilkat Swift Downloads
