    Hi All,

    My scenario is this:
    I have a 3 tier application. Client, BLL and DAL. Client is an exe, BLL and DAL are assemblies (.dlls).
    There is also a business entity assembly, of which the objects are manipulated by all the above layers.

    What I want:
    I wan't to somehow apply code access permissions to all the method signatures in each of the business entities so that they can only be called by the DAL layer. I was thinking that I could apply some security attribute of sorts to those methods I want to secure, and then hard-code the security role into the relevant assemblies.

    To make it more interesting the app is being deployed as a smart client, and hence no setup using the framework secuity wizards can be done on the client workstation.

    Any ideas??

    Regards

    Dave
