@aws-crypto/hkdf-node v4.0.0

@aws-crypto/hkdf-node

This module exports a HMAC-based Key Derivation Function (HKDF) for Node.js. HKDF is very simple to implement, but this module has been reviewed and has extensive test vectors.

This module is used in the the AWS Encryption SDK for JavaScript to provide HKDF key derivation for specific algorithm suites.

Specification: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5869
