SecurityKeyEntropyMode

Fields

Name	Value	Description
ClientEntropy	0	The client provides the key used for the issued token.
ServerEntropy	1	The server provides the key for the issued token.
CombinedEntropy	2	The client and server both provide entropy that is combined using the P-SHA1 function to derive the key of the issued token. Due to collision problems with SHA1, Microsoft recommends a security model based on SHA256 or better.

Remarks

This mode describes how the client and server compute a shared symmetric key to use with a token issued by the server.
