JSON Web Token (JWT, suggested pronunciation / dʒ ɒ t /, same as the word "jot" [1]) is a proposed Internet standard for creating data with optional signature and/or optional encryption whose payload holds JSON that asserts some number of claims. The tokens are signed either using a private secret or a public/private key.
A JSON Web Signature (abbreviated JWS) is an IETF-proposed standard (RFC 7515) for signing arbitrary data. [1] This is used as the basis for a variety of web-based technologies including JSON Web Token .
Along with JSON Web Signature (JWS), it is one of the two possible formats of a JWT (JSON Web Token). JWE forms part of the JavaScript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) suite of protocols. [ 2 ]
CBOR encoded data is seen as a stream of data items. Each data item consists of a header byte containing a 3-bit type and 5-bit short count. This is followed by an optional extended count (if the short count is in the range 24–27), and an optional payload. For types 0, 1, and 7, there is no payload; the count is the value. For types 2 (byte ...
In graphics file formats, the header might give information about an image's size, resolution, number of colors, and the like. In archive file formats, the file header might serve as a fingerprint or signature to identify the specific file format and corresponding software utility. In some programming languages (for example C and C++) the ...
The Cache-Control: no-cache HTTP/1.1 header field is also intended for use in requests made by the client. It is a means for the browser to tell the server and any intermediate caches that it wants a fresh version of the resource. The Pragma: no-cache header field, defined in the HTTP/1.0 spec, has the same purpose. It, however, is only defined ...

Payload In general, the payload is the data that is carried on behalf of an application. It is usually of variable length, up to a maximum that is set by the network protocol and sometimes the equipment on the route. When necessary, some networks can break a larger packet into smaller packets. [6]
