Set the Optional JWS Unprotected Header
See more JSON Web Signatures (JWS) Examples
Demonstrates Jws.SetUnprotectedHeader, which sets the optional unprotected header for a signature.
Background. Unlike the protected header, the unprotected header is not covered by the signature. It is carried in the JSON serialization forms of a JWS, so producing a JWS with an unprotected header yields a JSON serialization rather than compact form.
