PowerShell Credential Manager

I've seen lots of guidance on storing credentials for consumption by a PowerShell script. ConvertTo/From-SecureString seems to be the most common method, but has some serious limitations when it comes to sharing credentials between computers. In this post I'll introduce a PowerShell module I wrote which will allow you to store self-signed C Certificate encrypted credentials in a SQL database and consume them at a later date or from another machine.
