Thread Safety

Remarks
You can use the SecurityRoleAttribute to add roles to an application, and to associate them with components. When SecurityRoleAttribute is applied to an assembly as a whole, it ensures that the role exists in the application configuration (COM+ catalog). You can add members of the role using the COM+ Explorer.
When applied to a component, the SecurityRoleAttribute ensures that the role exists in the application configuration, and associates the target component with the role.
By default, created roles have no members. If the SetEveryoneAccess property is set to true, the Everyone user group is automatically added to the role. This is best for all-access type roles that are given minimal control over the system.
Security roles can be specified at the component level, per interface and per method. As with other method attributes, security configuration is not currently shared between interface definition and method implementation.
