Introduce HKDF as an algorithm based on RFC 5869

Closed this issue · 3 comments

There is a lack of details with the HKDF algorithm referenced in the current version of the web crypto API. It is expected to either reference NIST one or IETF one. It seems that the identification of Web Crypto HKDF and based on RFC 5869 is the most attractive option.

Expected work to move to a resolution : @mwatson2 to check this is a reasonable approach and reference HKDF as an algorithm based on RFC 5869
