Remarks

The KeyInfoRetrievalMethod class represents the <RetrievalMethod> element for both XML encryption and XML digital signatures.

Use the KeyInfoRetrievalMethod class to reference the same KeyInfo information in multiple XMLDSIG signatures or encrypted XML documents, especially when the referenced information is large. For example, a <RetrievalMethod> subelement can be used to reference a KeyInfoX509Data object that contains an X.509v3 certificate chain, which validates the signing key.

For more information about the <RetrievalMethod> element, see Section 4.4.3 of the XMLDSIG specification or the XML Encryption specification, which are available on the W3C website.
