Class CIM_SharedSecret
extends CIM_Credential

CIM_SharedSecret is a secret (such as a password or the response to a challenge question) that is shared between a principal and a particular SharedSecret security service. Secrets may be in the form of a password used for initial authentication, or as with a session key, used as part of a message to verify the originator of the message. It is important to note that SharedSecret is not just a password, but rather is the password used with a particular security service.
