### 1. Key Derivation Service
The Key Derivation Service (or KDS for short) provides
1. a deterministic Curve25519 keypair generator from BIP-39 mnemonics,
1. a deterministic secp256k1 keypair generator from BIP-39 mnemonics,
2. a pseudo-random BIP-39 mnemonic generator through web-bip-39 package.

#### Workflow
1. The $K_{r}$ is retrieved from the CCIR.
2. The $K_{e}$ is generated randomly for the file, $F$.
3. File $F$ is encrypted using AES-GCM-256 with encryption key $K_{e}$, and a randomly generated initialization vector, $IV$.
4. The $K_{e}$ is encrypted using ECIES, which is discussed in detail, in section “Key Encryption through ECIES”. This results in a new encrypted data, $E(K_{e})$.
5. The payload $P$ is created by concatenating $F_{e},\;IV\;E(K_{e})$
6. The payload is uploaded to the EFS.
1. The $Q_{r}$ is retrieved from the CCIR.
2. An ephemeral keypair is generated, $Q_{e}$ and $d_{e}$.
3. The shared secret which will be used in symmetric encryption is computed from $Z=d_{e}\times Q_{r}$.
5. File $F$ is encrypted using AES-GCM-256 with encryption key $Z$, and a randomly generated initialization vector, $IV$.
7. The payload $P$ is created by concatenating $Q_{e},\;IV,\;\text{MAC},\;F_{e}$.
8. The payload is uploaded to the EFS.
> [!info] Reminder
> The MAC in the payload $P$ at step 7 is a result of using AES-GCM-256, which is selected in ECIES implementation in the Rust crate we consume through ecies/rs-wasm package.
