!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([CWT] [RFC 8392]) is a compact means of representing claims to be transferred between two parties.  

The [claims] in a [{$pagename}] are encoded in the [Concise Binary Object Representation] ([CBOR]) and [CBOR] [Object Signing and Encryption] ([COSE]) is used for added [Application Layer] security protection. 

A [claim] is a piece of information asserted about a subject and is represented as a name/value pair consisting of a claim name and a claim value. [CWT] is derived from [JSON Web Token] ([JWT]) but uses [CBOR] rather than [JSON].

CWT is a profile of the [JSON Web Token] ([JWT]) that is optimized for constrained devices.  The claims in a CWT are encoded in the [Concise Binary Object Representation] ([CBOR]) and [CBOR Object Signing and Encryption] ([COSE]) is used for added application layer security protection.

The suggested pronunciation of [CWT] is the same as the English word "cot".
