The JavaScript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) technologies - JSON
Web Signature (JWS), JSON Web Encryption (JWE), JSON Web Key (JWK), and
JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) - collectively can be used to encrypt and/or
sign content using a variety of algorithms. While the full set of
permutations is extremely large, and might be daunting to some, it is
expected that most applications will only use a small set of algorithms
to meet their needs.
