function Backup-DbaDbMasterKey {
    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Backs up specified database master key.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
        Backs up specified database master key.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlInstance
        The target SQL Server instance or instances.
 
    .PARAMETER SqlCredential
        Allows you to login to SQL Server using alternative credentials.
 
    .PARAMETER Database
        Backup master key from specific database(s).
 
    .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase
        The database(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server.
 
    .PARAMETER Path
        The directory to export the key. If no path is specified, the default backup directory for the instance will be used.
 
    .PARAMETER Credential
        Pass a credential object for the password
 
    .PARAMETER SecurePassword
        The password to encrypt the exported key. This must be a SecureString.
 
    .PARAMETER InputObject
        Database object piped in from Get-DbaDatabase
 
    .PARAMETER WhatIf
        Shows what would happen if the command were to run. No actions are actually performed.
 
    .PARAMETER Confirm
        Prompts you for confirmation before executing any changing operations within the command.
 
    .PARAMETER EnableException
        By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
        This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
        Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Backup-DbaDbMasterKey -SqlInstance server1\sql2016
        ```
        ComputerName : SERVER1
        InstanceName : SQL2016
        SqlInstance : SERVER1\SQL2016
        Database : master
        Filename : E:\MSSQL13.SQL2016\MSSQL\Backup\server1$sql2016-master-20170614162311.key
        Status : Success
        ```
 
        Prompts for export password, then logs into server1\sql2016 with Windows credentials then backs up all database keys to the default backup directory.
 
    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Backup-DbaDbMasterKey -SqlInstance Server1 -Database db1 -Path \\nas\sqlbackups\keys
 
        Logs into sql2016 with Windows credentials then backs up db1's keys to the \\nas\sqlbackups\keys directory.
