JWS Verification options.

## Properties

### algorithms?

• `optional` **algorithms?**: `string`[]

Accepted JWS "alg" (Algorithm) Header Parameter values. Defaults to all algorithms applicable
to the key or secret. Unsecured JWTs (`alg: "none"`) are never accepted.

***

### crit?

• `optional` **crit?**: `object`

Recognized "crit" (Critical) Header Parameter names. Set each value to `true` to require
integrity protection, or `false` when protection is optional. The JWS `b64` extension is always
recognized and processed.

> [!WARNING]\
> Other extensions are only checked for syntax and optional integrity protection. Their presence
> is not required by this option. You must check their presence and process them according to the
> profile's validation steps after the operation succeeds.

#### Index Signature

\[`propName`: `string`\]: `boolean`
