Remarks

Use this class to issue SecurityContextToken security tokens.

The SecurityContextTokenService security token service handles security token requests that contain <Action> SOAP headers with the value https://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/04/security/trust/RST/SCT .

The SecurityContextTokenService class has two overloaded IssueSecurityContextTokenRequest methods for handling security token requests. One method, which takes a RequestSecurityToken parameter is called when a security token request is received within a <RequestSecurityToken> element. If the request is valid, the method issues a security token. The other method, which takes a RequestSecurityTokenResponse parameter, is called when a security token request is received within a <RequestSecurityTokenResponse> element. Note that the SecurityContextTokenService security token service does not support this type of request and therefore a TrustFault exception is thrown.

When you want to issue security tokens other than SecurityContextToken security tokens, you must derive a class from the SecurityTokenService class to build your security token service. For more details about issuing custom security tokens, see Issuing Security Tokens.
