When the STS issues a security token for the user, SessionAuthenticationModule also creates a session security token for the user and places it in a cookie. On subsequent requests, the SessionAuthenticationModule intercepts this cookie and uses it to reconstruct the user’s IClaimsPrincipal.

The following tables list the members exposed by the SessionAuthenticationModule type.
