These are examples of the process flow of using the ProtectedData PowerShell Module to encrypt a credential using certificates
on two servers

https://github.com/dlwyatt/ProtectedData

This does not represent a recommended approach, per se, but it does offer another secure means of persisting credentials to
a file vs. using DPAPI (Data Protection API); it's mainly written to help people grasp some basic concepts of asymmetric 
encryption, in action.

.SYNOPSIS
    Gets the pending reboot status on a local or remote computer.
.DESCRIPTION
    This function will query the registry on a local or remote computer and determine if the
    system is pending a reboot, from either Microsoft Patching or a Software Installation.
    For Windows 2008+ the function will query the CBS registry key as another factor in determining
    pending reboot state.  "PendingFileRenameOperations" and "Auto Update\RebootRequired" are observed
    as being consistant across Windows Server 2003 & 2008.
