The set of classes that represent the security tokens supported by the Web Services Enhancements for Microsoft .NET (WSE).

Classes

---

Class	Description
BinarySecurityToken	Provides a base class for all implementations of binary security tokens, as defined in the WS-Security specification.
DerivedKeyToken	Represents a security token whose key is cryptographically derived from the key of another security token.
DerivedKeyTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for DerivedKeyToken security tokens.
EncryptedKeyToken	Represents a security token for an encrypted symmetric key.
EncryptedKeyTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for EncryptedKeyToken security tokens.
IssuedToken	Represents a security token that is issued by a security token service.
IssuedTokenCache	Represents a cache of issued security tokens that is managed by the issued security token manager.
IssuedTokenCacheReference	Represents an item that is a member of the IssuedTokenCache.
IssuedTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for opaque security tokens that are issued by a security token service.
KerberosToken	Represents a security token for a Kerberos version 5.0 service ticket. This class cannot be inherited.
KerberosTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for KerberosToken security tokens.
KeyIdentifierCachedSecurityTokenManager	When overridden in a derived class, represents a security token manager that contains a security token cache that is based on the security token's KeyIdentifier.
MRUSecurityTokenCache	Provides the base implementation for a security token cache that makes room for a new token by removing the least recently accessed item.
PasswordTypes	Contains constants representing the URIs specifying how the password for a UsernameToken security token is sent in a SOAP message.
SecurityContextToken	Represents a security context token, which is a used for signing and/or encrypting SOAP messages.
SecurityContextTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for SecurityContextToken security tokens.
SecurityToken	Represents a base class used to implement all security tokens.
SecurityTokenCollection	Represents a strongly-typed collection of SecurityToken objects.
SecurityTokenManager	When overridden in a derived class, represents a security token manager. The class also provides static methods for working with all registered security token managers.
UsernameToken	Represents security credentials in the form of a user name and/or password.
UsernameTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for UsernameToken security tokens.
X509SecurityToken	Represents an X.509v3 security token. An X509SecurityToken can be used to sign, encrypt, and pass security credentials in a SOAP message.
X509SecurityTokenManager	Represents a security token manager for X509SecurityToken security tokens.

Interfaces

---

Interface	Description
IDerivableToken	Enables security tokens based on symmetric keys to be derived into a DerivedKeyToken.
IIssuedToken	Defines properties of a security token that is issued by a security token service.
IMutableSecurityToken	Provides an interface for security tokens containing mutable portions that affect cryptographic operations.
ISecurityTokenCache	Defines a security token cache.
ISecurityTokenManager	Represents the interface all security token manager implement.

Enumerations

---

Enumeration	Description
ImpersonationLevel	Specifies how a recipient of a security token can use the identity associated with the security token.
PasswordOption	Specifies how passwords that are contained in a SOAP message are sent.
