Traditionally these credentials are stored in LSA’s process memory accessible to the rest of the OS, making it possible for a privileged user to extract these credentials. Microsoft Windows stores credential material such as authentication tokens in the Local Security Authority (LSA), a process in the Microsoft Windows operating system that is responsible for enforcing the security policy of the system. Credential Guard, when enabled on Amazon EC2 Windows Instances protects sensitive user login information from being extracted from the Operating System (OS) memory. In this post we show you how to enable Windows Defender Credential Guard (Credential Guard) on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud ( Amazon EC2) running Microsoft Windows Server. ![]() ![]() This blog post is written by Jason Nicholls, Principal Solutions Architect AWS.
