## Handling session keys with *ESK packets ## Handling encrypted session keys: PKESK, SKESK
"ESK" is a family of mechanisms for dealing with symmetric key material. It has two branches: "*ESK" is a family of mechanisms for dealing with symmetric key material. It has two branches:
- [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 - [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
