[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.]

Provides cookie integrity using RSA signature.

Namespace: Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web
Assembly: Microsoft.IdentityModel (in Microsoft.IdentityModel.dll)

Usage

'Usage
Dim instance As RsaSignatureCookieTransform

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Class RsaSignatureCookieTransform
    Inherits CookieTransform

public class RsaSignatureCookieTransform : CookieTransform

public ref class RsaSignatureCookieTransform : public CookieTransform

public class RsaSignatureCookieTransform extends CookieTransform

public class RsaSignatureCookieTransform extends CookieTransform

Remarks

RsaSignatureCookieTransform adds an RSA-SHA1 MAC to the cookie data. This provides integrity but not confidentiality

Cookies protected with this transform may be read by any machine that shares the same RSA private key (generally associated with an X509 certificate).
