Return to Question

I have started to work with JJWT to handle JWT on my server application.

My JWT secret will be stored at resources folder and I will load the secret with Properties class.

The JJWT provides three methods to sign the JWT, one uses byte[], other uses String and the other uses Key:

JwtBuilder signWith(SignatureAlgorithm var1, byte[] var2);

JwtBuilder signWith(SignatureAlgorithm var1, String var2);

JwtBuilder signWith(SignatureAlgorithm var1, Key var2);

The question: Regarding security, charset and other things, there are some recommendations of which one I should use?

For while, I stand with String, since Properties return a String.
