The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

Some developers may desire to use the Advanced Security features of Microsoft
Exchange Server without user interaction, from within their application
programs. Key Management Service does not provide any means to accomplish this
task.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Specifically, Key Management Service does not expose any APIs, nor interfaces,
nor provide a Software Development Kit for use toward developing programmatic
control of Advanced Security. Thus, the functionality of Key Management Service
is available strictly to end users, rather than application developers.
