Exports a key from Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography.
Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography simplifies key exchange by replacing the existing paper-based approach with a modern electronic approach. With ExportKey you can export symmetric keys using either symmetric and asymmetric key exchange mechanisms. Using this operation, you can share your Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography generated keys with other service partners to perform cryptographic operations outside of Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography
For symmetric key exchange, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography uses the ANSI X9 TR-31 norm in accordance with PCI PIN guidelines. And for asymmetric key exchange, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography supports ANSI X9 TR-34 norm and RSA wrap and unwrap key exchange mechanism. Asymmetric key exchange methods are typically used to establish bi-directional trust between the two parties exhanging keys and are used for initial key exchange such as Key Encryption Key (KEK). After which you can export working keys using symmetric method to perform various cryptographic operations within Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography.
The TR-34 norm is intended for exchanging 3DES keys only and keys are imported in a WrappedKeyBlock format. Key attributes (such as KeyUsage, KeyAlgorithm, KeyModesOfUse, Exportability) are contained within the key block. With RSA wrap and unwrap, you can exchange both 3DES and AES-128 keys. The keys are imported in a WrappedKeyCryptogram format and you will need to specify the key attributes during import.
You can also use ExportKey functionality to generate and export an IPEK (Initial Pin Encryption Key) from Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography using either TR-31 or TR-34 export key exchange. IPEK is generated from BDK (Base Derivation Key) and ExportDukptInitialKey attribute KSN ( KeySerialNumber). The generated IPEK does not persist within Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography and has to be re-generated each time during export.
For key exchange using TR-31 or TR-34 key blocks, you can also export optional blocks within the key block header which contain additional attribute information about the key. The KeyVersion within KeyBlockHeaders indicates the version of the key within the key block. Furthermore, KeyExportability within KeyBlockHeaders can be used to further restrict exportability of the key after export from Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography.
The OptionalBlocks contain the additional data related to the key. For information on data type that can be included within optional blocks, refer to ASC X9.143-2022.
To export initial keys (KEK) or IPEK using TR-34
Using this operation, you can export initial key using TR-34 asymmetric key exchange. You can only export KEK generated within Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography. In TR-34 terminology, the sending party of the key is called Key Distribution Host (KDH) and the receiving party of the key is called Key Receiving Device (KRD). During key export process, KDH is Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography which initiates key export and KRD is the user receiving the key.
To initiate TR-34 key export, the KRD must obtain an export token by calling GetParametersForExport. This operation also generates a key pair for the purpose of key export, signs the key and returns back the signing public key certificate (also known as KDH signing certificate) and root certificate chain. The KDH uses the private key to sign the the export payload and the signing public key certificate is provided to KRD to verify the signature. The KRD can import the root certificate into its Hardware Security Module (HSM), as required. The export token and the associated KDH signing certificate expires after 7 days.
Next the KRD generates a key pair for the the purpose of encrypting the KDH key and provides the public key cerificate (also known as KRD wrapping certificate) back to KDH. The KRD will also import the root cerificate chain into Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography by calling ImportKey for RootCertificatePublicKey. The KDH, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography, will use the KRD wrapping cerificate to encrypt (wrap) the key under export and signs it with signing private key to generate a TR-34 WrappedKeyBlock. For more information on TR-34 key export, see section Exporting symmetric keys in the Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography User Guide.
Set the following parameters:
ExportAttributes: Specify export attributes in case of IPEK export. This parameter is optional for KEK export.
ExportKeyIdentifier: The KeyARN of the KEK or BDK (in case of IPEK) under export.
KeyMaterial: Use Tr34KeyBlock parameters.
CertificateAuthorityPublicKeyIdentifier: The KeyARN of the certificate chain that signed the KRD wrapping key certificate.
ExportToken: Obtained from KDH by calling GetParametersForImport.
WrappingKeyCertificate: The public key certificate in PEM format (base64 encoded) of the KRD wrapping key Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography uses for encryption of the TR-34 export payload. This certificate must be signed by the root certificate (CertificateAuthorityPublicKeyIdentifier) imported into Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography.
When this operation is successful, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography returns the KEK or IPEK as a TR-34 WrappedKeyBlock.
To export initial keys (KEK) or IPEK using RSA Wrap and Unwrap
Using this operation, you can export initial key using asymmetric RSA wrap and unwrap key exchange method. To initiate export, generate an asymmetric key pair on the receiving HSM and obtain the public key certificate in PEM format (base64 encoded) for the purpose of wrapping and the root certifiate chain. Import the root certificate into Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography by calling ImportKey for RootCertificatePublicKey.
Next call ExportKey and set the following parameters:
CertificateAuthorityPublicKeyIdentifier: The KeyARN of the certificate chain that signed wrapping key certificate.
KeyMaterial: Set to KeyCryptogram.
WrappingKeyCertificate: The public key certificate in PEM format (base64 encoded) obtained by the receiving HSM and signed by the root certificate (CertificateAuthorityPublicKeyIdentifier) imported into Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography. The receiving HSM uses its private key component to unwrap the WrappedKeyCryptogram.
When this operation is successful, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography returns the WrappedKeyCryptogram.
To export working keys or IPEK using TR-31
Using this operation, you can export working keys or IPEK using TR-31 symmetric key exchange. In TR-31, you must use an initial key such as KEK to encrypt or wrap the key under export. To establish a KEK, you can use CreateKey or ImportKey.
Set the following parameters:
ExportAttributes: Specify export attributes in case of IPEK export. This parameter is optional for KEK export.
ExportKeyIdentifier: The KeyARN of the KEK or BDK (in case of IPEK) under export.
KeyMaterial: Use Tr31KeyBlock parameters.
When this operation is successful, Amazon Web Services Payment Cryptography returns the working key or IPEK as a TR-31 WrappedKeyBlock.
Cross-account use: This operation can't be used across different Amazon Web Services accounts.
