Full Title
Javascript Object Signing and Encryption (jose)
Context
In OAuth 2.0 and other specs from the Open ID Foundation, there was a need for a small packed of identity information that could be coded and include in a HTTP header.
Problems
- The existing specs at the time the JWT was created were XML and SAML which were very wording and not amenable to coding in an HTTP header.
Solutions
- The IETF Working Group on Javascript Object Signing and Encryption (jose) issued a final report.
- Justin Richer has some suggestions.[1]
