Namespace: System.Security.Permissions
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Members

	Member name	Description
	NoFlags	No security access.
	Assertion	Ability to assert that all the callers of this code have the requisite permission for the operation.
	UnmanagedCode	Ability to call unmanaged code. Because unmanaged code potentially allows other permissions to be bypassed, this is a dangerous permission that should be granted only to highly trusted code. It is used for applications such as calling native code by using platform invoke or COM interop.
	SkipVerification	Ability to skip verification of code in this assembly. Code that is unverifiable can be run if this permission is granted. This is a powerful permission that should be granted only to highly trusted code.
	Execution	Permission for the code to run. Without this permission, managed code will not be executed.
	ControlThread	Ability to use certain advanced operations on threads.
	ControlEvidence	Ability to provide evidence, including the ability to alter the evidence provided by the common language runtime. This is a powerful permission that should be granted only to highly trusted code.
	ControlPolicy	Ability to view and modify policy. This is a powerful permission that should be granted only to highly trusted code.
	SerializationFormatter	Ability to provide serialization services. This flag is used by serialization formatters.
	ControlDomainPolicy	Ability to specify domain policy.
	ControlPrincipal	Ability to manipulate the principal object.
	ControlAppDomain	Ability to create and manipulate an AppDomain.
	RemotingConfiguration	Permission to configure remoting types and channels.
	Infrastructure	Permission to plug code into the common language runtime infrastructure, such as adding remoting context sinks, envoy sinks, and dynamic sinks.
	BindingRedirects	Permission to perform explicit binding redirection in the application configuration file. This includes redirection of .NET Framework assemblies that have been unified as well as other assemblies found outside the .NET Framework.
	AllFlags	The unrestricted state of the permission.

Remarks

This class supports the .NET Framework for Silverlight library code and is not intended to be used by Silverlight application code. The class has been marked as obsolete so that it will display a compilation warning. You can use this class in a Silverlight-based application, but it will have no effect.
