The Enterprise Library configuration tools have this built-in.

Here is the process (from this documentation):

To encrypt a configuration section

1. Open one of the Enterprise Library configuration tools.
2. Open an existing configuration file or create a new one.
3. Click the chevron arrow at the right of name of the application block whose configuration information you want to encrypt.
4. In the Properties pane, click the drop-down list for the Protection Provider property.
5. Select either DataProtectionConfigurationProvider or RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider.
