Form Authentication is a token-based system. When users log in, they receive a token with user information that is stored in an encrypted cookie. When a user requests an ASP.NET page via the browser, the ASP.NET verifies whether the form authentication token is available. If it is, then runtime redirects the user to a login […]
The point of this article is to lay down the conceptual groundwork of numerous .NET related topics such as CLR, CTS, CLS, Managed Code, JIT Compilation, Security, Assemblies, and Reflection. You will also understand the relationship between the various aspects of the .NET frameworks, such as Common Type System (CTS) and the Common Language Specification […]
Assemblies are the core units of deployment. At design time, we can examine the set of reference assemblies in CIL code with a couple of external tools, Reflector, and ildasm, to peek into the underlying metadata, MSIL code, and manifest. Hence, the triggering point behind writing this article is to gain an understanding of how […]
The .NET framework caters to different types of authentication mechanisms to use within your applications – —including basic authentication, digest authentication, forms authentication, Passport, and Integrated Windows authentication. You also can develop your own custom authentication mechanisms; for instance, Windows authentication that matches web users to Windows user accounts that are defined on the local […]
