| NegotiateAuthentication | Represents a stateful authentication exchange that uses the Negotiate, NTLM, or Kerberos security protocols to authenticate the client or server, in client-server communication. |
| NegotiateAuthenticationClientOptions | Represents a property bag for the client side of an authentication exchange. |
| NegotiateAuthenticationServerOptions | Represents a property bag for the server side of an authentication exchange. |
| NegotiateStream | Provides a stream that uses the Negotiate security protocol to authenticate the client, and optionally the server, in client-server communication. |
| SslCertificateTrust | Represents a trust policy for use with SSL/TLS connections. |
| SslClientAuthenticationOptions | Represents a client authentication property bag for the SslStream. |
| SslServerAuthenticationOptions | This struct represents a server authentication property bag for the SslStream. |
