[Starting with the .NET Framework 4.5, Windows Identity Foundation (WIF) has been fully integrated into the .NET Framework. The version of WIF addressed by this topic, WIF 3.5, is deprecated and should only be used when developing against the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 or the .NET Framework 4. For more information about WIF in the .NET Framework 4.5, also known as WIF 4.5, see the Windows Identity Foundation documentation in the .NET Framework 4.5 Development Guide.]

When a service is expecting a token backed by a personal card, it can specify SelfIssuedCredentials as its credential type. This contains PPID of the original information card. This is chosen to be one of the UserCredential type inside the TokenService element inside the information card.
