GenericPrincipal, WindowsIdentity, WindowsPrincipal, Identity Reference, and
WindowsImpersonationContext classes. |
Module 4: Implementing Cryptography
In this module, students learn about the new cryptographic types offered by
the .NET Framework 2.0, and significant enhancements to the existing types that
support symmetric and asymmetric encryption and hashing. Students also learn how
to use cryptographic types in .NET Framework applications to ensure secure
communication and the protection of sensitive data.

ProtectedData, ProtectedMemory, CspParameters, CryptoAPITransform, and
RandomNumberGenerator classes. |
Module 5: Interoperating Between COM Components and Assemblies
In this module, students learn how to create .NET Framework applications that
can communicate with COM components and unmanaged DLLs. Students also explore
how to use COM components in a .NET Framework application and design your .NET
Framework application so that it can be called by a COM component.

|
Access COM components by using Platform Invocation
Services. |
Module 6: Working with Service Applications and E-mail Messages
In this module, students learn how the .NET Framework simplifies the process
of creating service applications by providing the classes necessary to create,
install, debug, and monitor service applications. Students also learn how to
send e-mail messages from your service application.

MailAddressCollection, MailAttachment, SmtpClient, SmtpException, and
SmtpFailedRecipientException classes and the SendCompleteEventHandler
delegate. |
Module 7: Working with Type Metadata
In this module, students learn how to retrieve the type metadata for an
assembly. Students also learn how to use attributes to control the metadata that
