Rewrite PFX using AES256-SHA256
See more PFX/P12 Examples
Demonstrates how to load a .pfx/.p12, examine the encryption algorithm used, and rewrite using aes256-sha256.Chilkat Visual Basic 6.0 Downloads

' If the algorithm is "pbes2" then examine the actual encryption and HMAC algorithms used within pbes2.
' (If the algorithm is NOT "pbes2", then the following properties are meaningless and will not be modified from their previous values prior to loading the PFX.)
Debug.Print "Pbes2CryptAlg: " & pfx.Pbes2CryptAlg
Debug.Print "Pbes2HmacAlg: " & pfx.Pbes2HmacAlg
' Our output so far:
' Algorithm: pbeWithSHAAnd3_KeyTripleDES_CBC
' Pbes2CryptAlg: aes256-cbc
' Pbes2HmacAlg: hmacWithSha256
' This tells us that the PFX we loaded was protected using triple-DES with SHA1.
' (Most existing .pfx/.p12 files use 3DES w/ SHA1.)
' The Pbes2CryptAlg and Pbes2HmacAlg properties do not apply here because the AlgorithmId is not equal to "pbes2". We can ignore those values.
' Examine the last JSON data collected in the call to LoadPfxFile. This gives us information about what is contained in the PFX, including extended attributes.
