Remarks

When the RequiresAuthentication attribute is applied to your entities the appropriate query or save interceptor will check the attribute during authorization.

The attribute can also be applied to methods., such as remote service methods, named query methods, and all POCO methods.

If the user does not pass the authorization check, a PersistenceSecurityException is received on the client.
