      Attributes that should be part of the signed content optional, but it MUST be present if the content type of the EncapsulatedContentInfo value being signed is not id-data. In that case it must at least contain the following two attributes:

      A content-type attribute having as its value the content type of the EncapsulatedContentInfo value being signed. Section 11.1 defines the content-type attribute. However, the content-type attribute MUST NOT be used as part of a countersignature unsigned attribute as defined in Section 11.4.

      collection of the signed attributes.
    • addSignedAttribute

      public void addSignedAttribute (CmsAttribute attribute)
