Contributor guide
Research direction
Locate the specification sections covering encrypt/decrypt and algorithm-suites, then compare where exact algorithm details and security-property explanations currently appear. Done means the exact specifics are documented under algorithm-suites and the meanings of signing and authentication for the selected suite are clearly stated.
