Version 1

-Version 1 of Olm uses AES-256_ in CBC_ mode with `PCKS#7`_ padding for encryption
-and HMAC-SHA-256 for authentication. The 256 bit AES key, 256 bit HMAC key,

First the plain-text is encrypted to get the cipher-text, :math:`X_{i,j}`.
Then the entire message, both the headers and cipher-text, are HMAC'd and the
