<li>Generate 16 bytes of cryptographically secure random data, called <tt>key</tt> in the remainder of this algorithm.</li>
<li>Encrypt this key using the Double Ratchet as specified above, once for each intended recipient. This yields one OMEMOKeyExchange or OMEMOAuthenticatedMessage per recipient device.</li>
<li>Use HKDF-SHA-256 to generate 80 bytes of output from the key by providing the key as HKDF input, 256 zero-bits as HKDF salt and &quot;OMEMO Payload&quot; as HKDF info.</li>
<li>Divide the HKDF output into a 32-byte encryption key, a 32-byte authentication key and a 16 byte IV.</li>
<li>Encrypt the plaintext using AES-256-CBC with PKCS#7 padding, using the encryption key and IV derived in the previous step.</li>
<li>Calculate the HMAC-SHA-256 using the authentication key and the ciphertext from the previous steps.</li>
<li>Concatenate the key and the HMAC, encrypt them using the Double Ratchet as specified above, once for each intended recipient. This yields one OMEMOKeyExchange or OMEMOAuthenticatedMessage per recipient device.</li>
