No. The crypto cards preceded the z machines. They were available as part of the 9672s. There are several different ones with slightly different capabilities. They are all on the I/O bus so they are slightly slower than the CPACF hardware for the same operation, but they may be more secure depending upon use. CPACF is what was added with the z990. This is a specialized processor that you access by issuing specific instructions (the K... ones). This processor has been updated with almost every new z machine. How many CPACF processors are available also varies by model. Lloyd
