Parameters
- keySizeInBits
-
The key size in bits.
- senderEntropy
-
Requestor's entropy.
- receiverEntropy
-
The issuer's entropy.
Return Value
The computed symmetric key based on PSHA1 algorithm.Exceptions

Remarks
This function should not be used to generate DES keys because it does not perform an IsWeakKey check. Use GenerateDESKey() instead.
