Hi
JWA spec refers to the AES GCM KW family of algorithms as key encryption
algorithms [1], in the section title. Key Wrapping with AES is referred
to as is, Key Wrapping [2].
I replaced a test I had where Aes Key Wrap is used with AES GCM KW
(using Java Cipher wrap internally) and it works.
I wonder is there some subtle meaning hidden in referring to [1] as the
'key encryption' and [2] as the "key wrapping" ? Or both terms can be
used in a context of managing the content encryption keys with either
[1] or [2] ?
Thanks, Sergey
