This specification defines how to secure Verifiable Credentials with JSON Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) especially as explified by JSON Web Signatures (JWS) [RFC7515] and with CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE) [RFC8152]. This enables the Verifiable Credential data model [VC-DATA-MODEL]to be implemented with standards for signing and encryption that are widely adopted.
