         14 . A key management system, comprising:
 a memory designed to store computer program code;   a processor communicatively coupled to the memory;   wherein when the processor executes the computer program code, the processor is operable to at least:   receive, form a requester system, a request to generate a private encryption key and a public encryption key, a data file to be encrypted, and a use parameter;   generating a private encryption key and a public encryption key;
 communicating the public encryption key to the requester system; 
   encrypting the file with the use parameter based at least in part upon the private encryption key;   receiving a request to download the encrypted file and the public encryption key from a receiver system; and   based at least in part upon the request and the public encryption key received from the receiver system, downloading the encrypted file to the receiver system.
