75 [Abstract, Version ( "2.8.0" ), Description (
76 "Subclasses of CIM_Credential define materials, information or "
77 "other data which are used to establish identity. Generally, "
78 "there may be some shared information, or credential material "
79 "which is used to identify and authenticate an entity in the "
80 "process of gaining access to, or permission to use, resources. "
81 "Such credential material may be used to authenticate an "
82 "entity's identity initially, as done by a "
83 "CIM_AuthenticationService, and additionally on an ongoing "
84 "basis (for example, during the course of a connection or other "
85 tony 1.1 "security association), as proof that each received message or "
86 "communication came from a valid 'user' of that credential "
87 "material.")]

99 "Note that this property does not define how the expiration "
100 "is set - but that there IS an expiration. The property may "
101 "be set to either a specific date/time or an interval "
102 "(calculated from the Issued datetime). For example, for "
103 "Certificate Authority-signed public key, the expiration is "
104 "determined by the CA. Another example is a voice mail "
