1. The XPath expression
Signature
means elements with *local* name Signature, in no namespace.
Your Signature elements are in the http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#
namespace, so you have to specify that. You must use a prefix in order
to do this. Add an xmlns:dsig="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#" to
your xsl:stylesheet and then look for dsig:Signature, not Signature.
2. "//" traverses the entire document looking for nodes.
You know where your dsig:Signature elements are -- they are all
at /IFX/dsig:Signature .. so use that instead of //dsig:Signature in
your xsl:apply-templates.
3. match="//Signature" is also inefficient. Use match="dsig:Signature"
