Remarks
Caution
Code Access Security (CAS) has been deprecated across all versions of .NET Framework and .NET. Recent versions of .NET do not honor CAS annotations and produce errors if CAS-related APIs are used. Developers should seek alternative means of accomplishing security tasks.
This enumeration is used by the DataProtectionPermission and DataProtectionPermissionAttribute classes to protect access to encrypted data and memory using the ProtectedData and ProtectedMemory classes.
Caution
Many of these flags can have powerful effects and should be granted only to highly trusted code.
