Wednesday 8M

Convener: Kyle Den Hartog

Notes-taker(s): Kyle Den Hartog


Tags for the session - technology discussed/ideas considered:


DIDComms, encryption


Discussion notes, key understandings, outstanding questions, observations, and, if appropriate to this discussion: action items, next steps:


This is the current format that is used to handle encryption with a standardized serialization format that is similar to JWEs.

We also discussed:

  • what it would take to get this fully JWE compliant.
  • what we need to do in the future to improve this cryptographically as well as reducing the size of messages by changing the serialization format using CBOR.
