Property Value
true if the security token is currently valid; otherwise, false.
Remarks
The IsCurrent and IsExpired properties both indicate whether a security token is valid. The difference, is that a security token with an IsCurrent property set to false, may become valid at a later time. That is, if a security token is issued by a security token service, a security token service specifies the period of time the security token is valid. It is possible for the security token service to set the !:Microsoft.Web.Services2.Security.UsernameToken.Created property to a value later than the current time, similar to a post-dated check. In that scenario, during the period of time between when the security token is issued and the date and time specified in the value of the !:Microsoft.Web.Services2.Security.UsernameToken.Created property, the value of the IsCurrent property is false, whereas the IsExpired property is also false .
Use the IsCurrent property to check the validity of a security token that has been added to a cache, such as the PolicyEnforcementSecurityTokenCache, before using it.
