Answer / seshu
A strong name consists of the assembly's identity — its
simple text name, version number, and culture information
(if provided) — plus a public key and a digital signature.
In particular, strong names satisfy the following requirements:
Strong names guarantee name uniqueness by relying on unique
key pairs. No one can generate the same assembly name that
you can, because an assembly generated with one private key
has a different name than an assembly generated with another
private key.
Strong names protect the version lineage of an assembly. A
strong name can ensure that no one can produce a subsequent
version of your assembly. Users can be sure that a version
of the assembly they are loading comes from the same
publisher that created the version the application was built
with.
Strong names provide a strong integrity check. Passing the
.NET Framework security checks guarantees that the contents
of the assembly have not been changed since it was built.
Note, however, that strong names in and of themselves do not
imply a level of trust like that provided, for example, by a
digital signature and supporting certificate.
