I'm looking for a way to use JSON Web Encryption (JWE) in a Node.js service. I have however only managed to find implementations of the related standard JWS. There are however several libraries for other languages, such as jose4j.
Did anyone successfully implement JWE in Javascript? I'm afraid I'm gonna gave to resort to implementing the spec myself using lower level primitives. Is there a better approach?

Information Exchange: JWTs are a good way of securely transmitting information between parties because they can be signed, which means you can be sure that the senders are who they say they are. Additionally, the structure of a JWT allows you to verify that the content hasn't been tampered with.
Here is a library that can be used from Node.js also https://github.com/cisco/node-jose. They have also a very good documentation on how to use it.

There is a library js-jose https://github.com/square/js-jose. But it works only for Chrome. It does not work for Internet Explorer nor for FireFox.
