Generating a Secure Key

It may be necessary to generate a binary secure key that is used by the services to encrypt and decrypt communication streams between the services.
Note: Prior to generating a secure key, the Algorithm for Encrypted Streams parameter must be set. Ensure that this parameter has a set and valid value. For more information on updating parameters for services, please see Editing Services Parameters.
