Summary

This is the base class for code access security attributes.

Description

[Note: The types that derive from CodeAccessSecurityAttribute are used to secure access to resources or securable operations.

The security information declared by a security attribute is stored in the metadata of the attribute target, and is accessed by the system at run-time. Security attributes are used for declarative security only. Use the corresponding permission class derived from CodeAccessPermission for imperative security.
