1. Does not really matter, since it is up to you how you authenticate and verify a login. FormAuthenticationTicket is all you need.
2. Any device that can let you obtain and send a cookie will work.
3. Forms authentication handles ecnryption for you.

Wow, this is dead simple. But being curious i have certain question popping in my mind.
1. If i don’t use Membership tables (default tables provided by asp.net), and create my own from scratch. So how form authentication will be created.

2. Same form authentication can be used to consume services from devices like iPhone, WP7 etc

3. encrypt of keys is secure way or there is another option available.

Thanks for wonderful article.
