@ -66,7 +66,7 @@ Encrypted session key (ESK) packets are a family of two mechanisms for securing
- [PKESK](https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-openpgp-crypto-refresh-12.html#name-public-key-encrypted-sessio): Uses asymmetric OpenPGP key material to protect a session key, and
- [SKESK](https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-openpgp-crypto-refresh-12.html#name-symmetric-key-encrypted-ses): Uses passphrases to protect the symmetric key material, instead of OpenPGP asymmetric key material (this is less commonly used).
An arbitrary number of PKESKs and SKESKs can be used in the same message. It is also possible to mix the two, resulting in a message which can be decrypted using either one of the designated OpenPGP keys or any of the passwords used to encrypt the message. This is useful to make a message available to a number of known recipients, with the option to provide the password to future recipients.
