### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem.
Protecting keys at rest is a good practice and is often done via the `ProtectKeysWith...` methods like `ProtectKeysWithCertificate`.
However, protecting the keys with for example `ProtectKeysWithCertificate` and an `X509Certificate2` keeps the problem of rotating the certificate used for protecting the keys at rest. Is there a good pattern or some documentation on this topic on how to proceed with rotation certificates used for key protection at rest without restarting the application?
### Describe the solution you'd like
Some docs or a API to configure propper certificate rotation for the protection of key in rest.
