I was trying to find the KEYS file in order to obtain the public key to verify 
the signature but I am not sure it is there?


From wiki link below:
Also, the KEYS file needed to verify netbeans distributions needs to be 
uploaded in the root (netbeans) dist folder there as well:
https://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution.html#sigs-and-sums

Cheers,
Markus
