## Class AEAD

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.crypto.hpke.AEAD

-     public class AEAD
      extends java.lang.Object

  AEAD wrapper backing `HPKEContext.seal(byte[], byte[])`/`HPKEContext.open(byte[], byte[])`. Holds the key and base nonce derived during context setup and applies the RFC 9180 §5.2 nonce-XOR-counter construction per call. Supports the four AEAD suite IDs registered by RFC 9180 (AES-128-GCM, AES-256-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305, and the export-only sentinel 0xFFFF).

  Typical callers don't construct `AEAD` directly — obtain a context via `HPKE.setupBaseS(org.bouncycastle.crypto.params.AsymmetricKeyParameter, byte[])`/etc. and use the seal/open methods on the returned `HPKEContext`.
