Yes, but I need to export a secure key to another platform. I don't
believe I can export a secure key using the ICSF api's without wrapping
it in an export key. The one piece of the puzzle that i don't have is,
how does the non-zOS target platform unwrap the symmetric key from the
exporter key so they can import it into their system.

It should be supported on most platforms. It uses assymetric cryptography to
encrypt the crypt the symmetric key. And the RSA encryption does use a bunch of
CPU for a brief moment to encrypt the symmetric key.

Subject: ICSF Symmetric Key being sent to a non-zOS system
I've been reading the ICSF Applications Programmers guide and I understand the
process on how to transport ICSF keys to another zOS system using
importer/exporter keys, but I have no idea on how it would work on a non-zOS
platform.
Can anyone point me to some doc, or share their process if they've already done
it?
