The StrongName evidence class represents an assembly’s strong name. The PublicKey property contains a System.Security.Permissions.StrongNamePublicKeyBlob object that contains the public key of the assembly’s strong name. The Name property holds the simple name of the assembly, and the Version property contains a System.Version object that represents the assembly’s version.

The StrongNameMembershipCondition class uses StrongName evidence during policy resolution to evaluate whether an assembly or application domain qualifies for membership of a CodeGroup.
