 'description': 'Windows Security Support Provider (SSP) DLLs are loaded into '
                'the Local Security Authority (LSA) process at system start. '
                'Once loaded into the LSA, SSP DLLs have access to encrypted '
                'and plaintext passwords that are stored in Windows, such as '
                "any logged-on user's Domain password or smart card PINs. The "
                'SSP configuration is stored in two Registry keys: '
                '<code>HKLM\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Lsa\\Security '
                'Packages</code> and '
                '<code>HKLM\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Lsa\\OSConfig\\Security '
                'Packages</code>. An adversary may modify these Registry keys '
                'to add new SSPs, which will be loaded the next time the '
                'system boots, or when the AddSecurityPackage Windows API '
                'function is called.\n'
