EncryptionMethod Class
Assembly: System.Security (in system.security.dll)
Syntax
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Class EncryptionMethod
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As EncryptionMethod
C#
public class EncryptionMethod
C++
public ref class EncryptionMethod
J#
public class EncryptionMethod
JScript
public class EncryptionMethod
Remarks
The <EncryptionMethod> tag uses a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to identify the encryption algorithm that must be used to decrypt XML data. The EncryptionMethod class encapsulates the <EncryptionMethod> tag defined by the World Wide Web Consortium XML Encryption specification located at http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-core/.
Use the EncryptionMethod class to identify the encryption algorithm associated with the EncryptedData element or the EncryptedKey element.
Use one of the URI identifiers defined by the World Wide Web Consortium XML Encryption specification located at http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlenc-core/. All URI identifiers are accessible as static fields of the EncryptedXml class.
Example
The following code example demonstrates how to create a simple utility class that uses the TripleDES algorithm to encrypt an XML document.
