Introduction to PASETO (platform-agnostic security tokens)
summary
Compares JWT and PASETO by name and behavior and gives concrete tradeoffs: PASETO enforces one true cipher suite per version, uses versioned protocols (v2 recommended, v1 compatibility), has two purposes — local (symmetric encryption) and public (public-key signatures) — and forbids the JWT none algorithm. Tokens are always signed; local tokens are also encrypted; optional footer supports key rotation. Notes a Java implementation and that PASETO is still an IETF draft rather than a finished RFC.
