Programming .Net Security

This chapter discusses the features you can use to increase the security of your ASP.NET applications. We discuss the overall issue of ASP.NET application security, and the mechanisms the .NET Framework provides to provide authentication, authorization, and impersonation services to ASP.NET applications. We then discuss the use of code-access security within ASP.NET hosted environments. We do not attempt to teach you about ASP.NET programming a vast topic that is well beyond the scope of this book; we assume you already have experience developing with ASP.NET.
