Remarks

Use the SecurityTokenProvider class when custom security tokens are required. The role of a security token provider is to get a security token when a SOAP message is sent by a client and a security token is used to authenticate the client or to protect the SOAP message. Specifically, the GetToken method is called to get a security token. The security token provider can also be called to cancel and renew a security using the CancelToken and RenewToken methods.

Classes that derive from the SecurityTokenManager class implement the CreateSecurityTokenProvider method to determine which security token provider is required for a given security token.

The ClientCredentialsSecurityTokenManager and ServiceCredentialsSecurityTokenManager classes provide the default implementations for built-in security token types. For custom security token scenarios, you must derive a class from one of the SecurityTokenManager, ClientCredentialsSecurityTokenManager, or ServiceCredentialsSecurityTokenManager classes and provide the functionality to create the security token provider, security token authenticator, and security token serializer for the custom security token. For more information about creating a custom token, see How to: Create a Custom Token.
