  • https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff803371.aspx: If you were to run the aExpense application on more than one web role instance in Windows Azure, the default cookie encryption mechanism (which uses DPAPI) is not appropriate because each instance has a different key. This would mean that a cookie created by one web role instance would not be readable by another web role instance. To solve this problem you should use a cookie encryption mechanism that uses a key shared by all the web role instances.
