Remarks

In SanteDB, a security session is comprised of up to three security identities/principals:

  • (Optional) User identity representing the human using the application
  • (Optional) A IDeviceIdentity representing the device running the application, and
  • An IApplicationIdentity representing the application

This service is what is used to authenticate the device identity from a central credential store of registered devices. This service may be called with a shared device id/secret (like a user name and password), or may be called with a device ID and x509 certificate (if used for authenticating sessions with a client certificate)
