EncryptedXml.Encrypt Method

Definition

Encrypts the outer XML of an element using the specified certificate or key in the key mapping table.

Overloads

Encrypt(XmlElement, X509Certificate2)

Encrypts the outer XML of an element using the specified X.509 certificate.

Encrypt(XmlElement, String)

Encrypts the outer XML of an element using the specified key in the key mapping table.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to encrypt an XML document using a symmetric key.

Public Function Encrypt (inputElement As XmlElement, certificate As X509Certificate2) As EncryptedData

Parameters

inputElement
XmlElement

The XML element to encrypt.

certificate
X509Certificate2

The X.509 certificate to use for encryption.

Returns

An EncryptedData element that represents the encrypted XML data.

Exceptions

The value of the inputElement parameter is null.

-or-

The value of the certificate parameter is null.

The value of the certificate parameter does not represent an RSA key algorithm.

Remarks

The Encrypt method is a convenient way to encrypt the outer XML of an element using a certificate. This method generates a 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) session key to encrypt an XML element and then encrypts and signs the AES key using the X509Certificate2 object. The Encrypt method then returns the resulting XML as an EncryptedData element.

If you need more control over the encryption, so you can place the encrypted information into a <CipherReference> element or specify whether the entire XML element or just its contents should be encrypted, use the EncryptData method overloads.

To use XML Encryption with X.509 certificates, you must have the Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider installed and the X.509 certificate must use the Enhanced Provider. If you do not have the Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider installed or the X.509 certificate does not use the Enhanced Provider, a CryptographicException with an "Unknown Error" will be thrown when you decrypt an XML document.

Remarks

This method is a convenient way to encrypt the outer XML of an element using a key name. If you need more control over the encryption, so you can place the encrypted information into a <CipherReference> element or specify whether the entire XML element or just its contents should be encrypted, use the EncryptData method overloads.

For a list of all supported algorithms, see the list of constant fields associated with the EncryptedXml class.
