How to do custom encryption and decryption on a Splunk universal forwarder?

I am trying to do custom encryption and decryption of data on the universal forwarders. I am trying to configure the Splunk UF to use own certificates and forward the encrypted data to the third-party system(Java socket). The reason I am doing this is to recover the Splunk event logs to the java socket connection by decrypting the event changelogs.

How can I do this on Splunk UF?
