.NET Forum / .NET Framework / Security / May 2005How many keys?
Hello. I am developing an application with multiple assemblies. I have all the projects contained in one solution just to make code management a little easier. However, is it recommended to have one key for strong naming for all the assemblies (projects) or should if assembly be strong named with a different key? Thanks. Ryan Ryan, You can use one key. There is no advantages of using multiple keys. Alek > Hello. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Thanks. > Ryan The only reason I can think of that you might want different strong names would be to apply different security policies to different assemblies and wanted to use the strong name as evidence. Otherwise, I agree with Alex. You probably just want one key.

Since it's possible to vary permission grants based on strong name without varying the signing key, potential policy use probably shouldn't be a factor when selecting a signing key.
