Abstract
This key management system effectively solves the key distribution problems of distance, time, operator error, and security risk by transferring encryption keys with appropriate system information between a key management controller (101) and a remote keyloader (109). The keyloader (109) is then coupled to a communication device to transfer (327) the keys and receive (329) identification information from the communication device. The keyloader (109) then sends (323) the information to the key management controller (101) that controls the distribution of the encryption keys and collection of the communication device identifications.
