When building an ASP.NET application that requires multiple security levels via secure login and is deployed on three web servers using round-robin load balancing, how should you manage the login state securely?
Explanation
In a load-balanced environment with multiple servers, relying on View State or Session alone is insufficient because requests may be handled by different servers. Therefore, the most reliable approach is to maintain the login state securely in a centralized database to ensure consistency across all servers.
