Silverlight doesn’t support message encryption because it doesn’t provide (as of SL4, I haven’t looked in SL5 beta) asymmetric crypto support. You can do some custom message security if you are willing to create your own channel (which is really, really hard to do, unfortunately) which uses some out-of-band shared key and use the symmetric crypto (which is available on SL).
