RFC 3394: Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Key Wrap Algorithm

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The purpose of this document is to make the AES Key Wrap algorithm conveniently available to the Internet community. The United States of America has adopted AES as the new encryption standard. The AES Key Wrap algorithm will probably be adopted by the USA for encryption of AES keys. The authors took most of the text in this document from the draft AES Key Wrap posted by NIST.
