Remarks

Use the GetSignedTokenXml and VerifySignedTokenXml methods when you send and receive SOAP messages containing digitally signed security tokens. When sending a SOAP message, use the GetSignedTokenXml to generate the XML representation of a digitally signed security token. When a SOAP message is received that contains the XML representation of a digitally signed security token, use the VerifySignedTokenXml to verify the signature.
