A strong named assembly provides a unique identity to an assembly through a strong name that includes the assembly's name, version, culture, public key, and processor architecture. Strong naming is used to store assemblies in the global assembly cache, prevent spoofing, and ensure global uniqueness. Strong names satisfy requirements of uniqueness, version lineage protection, and strong integrity checks. Developers can generate a strong name key and obtain the public key token to apply a strong name to an assembly.
