Load a PFX from an Encoded String
See more PFX/P12 Examples
Demonstrates Pfx.LoadPfxEncoded, which decodes text using a named binary encoding (such as base64) and loads the resulting bytes as a PFX / PKCS#12 container.
Background. This is useful when the PKCS#12 data has been transported or stored as printable text, such as base64.
