An AsymmetricAlgorithm object that contains the public key of the signature, or null if the key cannot be found.
Exceptions
The KeyInfo property is null.
Remarks
The GetPublicKey method returns an AsymmetricAlgorithm object that contains a public key that can be used to verify an XML digital signature.
The key must be either a DSA or an RSA key.
