PKI技术（public key infrastructure）里面，cer文件和pfx文件是非经常见的。通常cer文件中面保存着公钥以及用户的一些信息，pfx里面则含有私钥和公钥。
用makecert.exe能够创建公钥证书和私钥证书，详细看

http://blog.csdn.net/hacode/article/details/4240238
这里使用程序的方法来创建。參考了http://www.cnblogs.com/luminji/archive/2010/10/28/1863179.html
以下的代码封装了一个类，能够在store里面创建一个认证，而且导出到cer，pfx，然后从store，cer，pfx读取信息

两个RSA加解密辅助函数：
static string RSADecrypt(string xmlPrivateKey, string m_strDecryptString)
{
RSACryptoServiceProvider provider = new RSACryptoServiceProvider();
provider.FromXmlString(xmlPrivateKey);
byte[] rgb = Convert.FromBase64String(m_strDecryptString);
byte[] bytes = provider.Decrypt(rgb, false);
return new UnicodeEncoding().GetString(bytes);
}
/// <summary>
/// RSA加密
/// </summary>
/// <param name="xmlPublicKey"></param>
/// <param name="m_strEncryptString"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
static string RSAEncrypt(string xmlPublicKey, string m_strEncryptString)
{
RSACryptoServiceProvider provider = new RSACryptoServiceProvider();
provider.FromXmlString(xmlPublicKey);
byte[] bytes = new UnicodeEncoding().GetBytes(m_strEncryptString);
return Convert.ToBase64String(provider.Encrypt(bytes, false));
}
使用样例，以下的代码做了几个事情
1. 在个人store里面创建了一个认证， 从认证里面读取信息得到一个X509Certificate2的对象，这个对象内部包括公钥和私钥，然后做了次rsa加解密測试。
2. 从store里面导出一个cer文件，由于cer文件并没有私钥，仅仅有公钥。測试代码就是用公钥加密然后用前面得到的私钥解密。
3. 导出一个pfx文件，pfx包含公钥和私钥，能够自己加解密。
这是个非常easy的样例，可是对于理解cer文件和pfx文件已经公钥私钥应该有帮助。
// 在personal（个人）里面创建一个foo的证书
DataCertificate.CreateCertWithPrivateKey("foo", "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64\makecert.exe");
// 获取证书
X509Certificate2 c1 = DataCertificate.GetCertificateFromStore("foo");
string keyPublic = c1.PublicKey.Key.ToXmlString(false); // 公钥
string keyPrivate = c1.PrivateKey.ToXmlString(true); // 私钥
string cypher = RSAEncrypt(keyPublic, "程序猿"); // 加密
string plain = RSADecrypt(keyPrivate, cypher); // 解密
Debug.Assert(plain == "程序猿");
// 生成一个cert文件
DataCertificate.ExportToCerFile("foo", "d:\mycert\foo.cer");
X509Certificate2 c2 = DataCertificate.GetCertFromCerFile("d:\mycert\foo.cer");
string keyPublic2 = c2.PublicKey.Key.ToXmlString(false);
bool b = keyPublic2 == keyPublic;
string cypher2 = RSAEncrypt(keyPublic2, "程序猿2"); // 加密
string plain2 = RSADecrypt(keyPrivate, cypher2); // 解密, cer里面并没有私钥，所以这里使用前面得到的私钥来解密
Debug.Assert(plain2 == "程序猿2");
// 生成一个pfx， 而且从store里面删除
DataCertificate.ExportToPfxFile("foo", "d:\mycert\foo.pfx", "111", true);
X509Certificate2 c3 = DataCertificate.GetCertificateFromPfxFile("d:\mycert\foo.pfx", "111");
string keyPublic3 = c3.PublicKey.Key.ToXmlString(false); // 公钥
string keyPrivate3 = c3.PrivateKey.ToXmlString(true); // 私钥
string cypher3 = RSAEncrypt(keyPublic3, "程序猿3"); // 加密
string plain3 = RSADecrypt(keyPrivate3, cypher3); // 解密
Debug.Assert(plain3 == "程序猿3");
