Context / Background
It's not clearly mentioned how to perform decryption in a web application that is not running inside the HardhatRuntimeEnvironment.
The only workaround i've found for now is to spawn a webserver that internally uses CLI commands to run hardhat tasks that run the encryption/decryption, and return the stdout to the webserver, which returns it to the calling website.
