!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is a [MSFT Access Token] a [Microsoft Windows] system uses the [{$pagename}] for [Access Control] to [Protected Resources] and to control the ability of the [user] to perform various system-related operations on the [Local Computer|Local device].


[{$pagename}] is generated by the [Local Security Authority Subsystem Service] ([LSASS]) and [Security Reference Monitor] ([SRM]) right after the first communication between the [NTLM] and SAMSRV.dll when translating from username to [Security Identifier] ([SID]).

[{$pagename}] is an object that describes the security context of a process or thread. The information in a [{$pagename}] includes the identity and [privileges] of the user account associated with the process or [thread]. 

When a user logs on, the system verifies the user's [password] by comparing it with information stored in a security database. If the password is authenticated, the system produces an [{$pagename}]. Every process executed on behalf of this user has a copy of this [{$pagename}].
