Encrypt/Decrypt using PFX to produce -----BEGIN PKCS7----- ... -----END PKCS7-----

See more Encryption Examples

First we encrypt using a certificate + public key to produce output such as:

-----BEGIN PKCS7-----
MIIHPwYJKoZIhvcNAQcEoIIHMDCCBywC ...
...
...
-----END PKCS7-----

Then we decrypt using the cert + private key. C
