Product Description
Experienced developers who are looking to create reliably secure sites with ASP.NET 2.0 will find that Professional ASP.NET 2.0 Security, Membership, and Role Management covers a broad range of security features including developing in partial trust, forms authentication, and securing configuration. The book offers detailed information on every major area of ASP.NET security you’ll encounter when developing Web applications.

You’ll see how ASP.NET 2.0 version contains many new built-in security functions compared to ASP.NET 1.x such as Membership and Role Manager, and you’ll learn how you can extend or modify various features. The book begins with two chapters that walk you through the processing ASP.NET 2.0 performs during a web request and the security processing for each request, followed by a detailed explanation of ASP.NET Trust Levels.

With this understanding of security in place, you can then begin working through the following chapters on configuring system security, forms authentication, and integrating ASP.NET security with classic ASP including integrating Membership and Role Manager with classic ASP. The chapter on session state looks at the limitations of cookieless session identifiers, methods for heading off session denial of service attacks, and how session state is affected by trust level. After the chapter explaining the provider model architecture in ASP.NET 2.0 and how it is useful for writing custom security providers you go to the MembershipProvider class and configuring the two default providers in the Membership feature, SqlMembershipProvider and ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider. You'll see how to use RoleManager to make it easy to associate users with roles and perform checks declaratively and in code and wrap up working with three providers for RoleProvider – WindowsTokenRoleProvider, SqlRoleProvider, and AuthorizationStoreRoleProvider (to work with Authorization Manager or AzMan).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, July 18, 2006
By D. Rehm (Carlisle, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am using ASP.NET 2.0 with forms-based security and wanted to authenticate and authorize using Active Directory users and groups as ASP.NET users and roles. After many hours and much research, I had authentication working. After more hours and research, I was looking at doing authorization using ADAM and not getting it to work. I was reading posts, blogs, MSDN articles, everything I could find. I purchased this e-book and downloaded it. Within hours I had authorization working in Active Directory like I originally wanted to.

If you have needs like these, or if you just want to understand these aspects of ASP.NET 2.0 Security in great detail, this book will be invaluable. As I worked through the chapters, the author even anticipated the errors I would encounter, explained them and explained what to do to solve them. While not everything is explained in total detail, there is enough for someone who is not an Active Directory expert to set it up and get it working. I've gotten more value in a shorter amount of time from this book than any other I've ever purchased.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book , gives background info., February 24, 2006
By Drewes J. Kooi (Columbus, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book about asp.net 2.0, IIS and security. It provides a lot of background info, once you have that the other pieces of asp.net fall into place and things make a lot more sense. I think for code examples I can always use Google, background info on how it all works together is what you read a book for and this book delivers. I hope this will not be the author's last book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, July 10, 2006
By Allen Z. Deng (Vancouver, BC Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is one of the best technical books I've ever read. It gives us detailed information of how ASP.NET 2.0 works behind the scene.

If you are simply looking for a book teaching you how to use Role Management, Membership and other cool features offered by ASP.NET 2.0, this book might not be a good fit for you because it tends to explain lots of background info before jumping into the new features. However if what you want is to understand how all these puzzles interact with each other in the ASP.NET security world, this book should be your first choice.
