Does it mean that  being asked for a private data the workflow will first
use assymetric algorythm to extract the symmetric key and then decrypt
the data? This way we can gain something only if  the size of data requested
is
rather large.  Otherwise we could use the assymetric key to encrypt data.
I cannot imagine a real example of large piece of data one need to store
in CA.
