Demanded Returns the permission(s) that caused the Demand to fail. The returned object
needs to be cast to a Permission, PermissionSet, or
PermissionSetCollection type in order to access its information. You can
use the is keyword to determine which one of these types this property returned.
DenySetInstance Returns the denied permission(s) that caused the Demand to fail. This property
contains a value whenever a Deny higher up in the stack causes a Demand to fail.
The returned object needs to be cast to a Permission, PermissionSet, or
PermissionSetCollection type in order to access its information. You can

occurred (i.e., the assembly where the Demand that failed was called).
FirstPermissionThatFailed Returns an IPermission object of the first permission that failed. This is useful

property identifies which permission caused the exception to occur.

the cause of the exception was due to a Deny or PermitOnly, the method con-
taining the Deny or PermitOnly will be returned by this property. From this
object you can also obtain information on the type and assembly that contain this
method.
PermitOnlySetInstance Returns the permission(s) that were set by a PermitOnly at the point where the
security exception was thrown. The returned object needs to be cast to a
Permission, PermissionSet, or PermissionSetCollection type in
order to access its information. You can use the is keyword to determine which
one of these types this property returned.
