When encrypting ("protecting") Microsoft config sections, you get something that looks like the XML below. It follows (at least partially) the W3 spec for XML Encryption. 

However, in the XML below you'll see that the EncryptionMethod under the EncryptedData section is "tripledes-cbc". We would like to be able to change that to a more-secure alternative, specifically AES, which is specified in the aforementioned W3 spec as well. 

In many calls with Microsoft's support engineers, they are nowhere near understanding the question, much less answering it. Is there a way to change this encryption method?

I forgot to mention earlier that we are currently set to RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider, but only the key appears to be encrypted with RSA, whereas the data is encrypted with 3DES.
