Security in the .NET Compact Framework

In the .NET Compact Framework, the security policy assumes an open platform and grants full trust to all code. Future versions of the .NET Compact Framework may offer a subset of the policy-driven, evidence-based code access security of the full .NET Framework. Security policy in future versions of the .NET Compact Framework may vary depending on both device and security domain.

Code that uses platform invoke and accesses the file system will work on an open Pocket PC, but may throw a security exception on an OEM Windows CE device with locked-down security.
