Title: RE: [security-services] Authentication Response IssuerName vs. As sertion IssuerName
Conor, what do you do in the case where the Response is not signed but someone is sending you an EncryptedAssertion?
How do you know who the issuer is (particularly if it's an unsolicited Response)?
Tom.

I think it probably should also be a MUST if your signing the response.
My main concern is for when the response isn't signed.
