Published: June 23, 2010, 1:47 p.m.

This session describes in detail the difference between passive and active scenarios, specifically around the confirmation method for toekns (bearer vs. holder-of-key).
The WIF object model and WCF integration are discussed, with special attention to similarities to what has been seen for the ASP.NET case and differences with the traditional, WCF-only programming model.
The notion of trusted subsystem is explored at lenght, providing the backdrop for the introduction to WSTrustChannel, CreateChannelActingAs and CreateChannelWithIssuedToken.
