Extract DPAPI

T1555 · MITRE ATT&CK

Adversaries may abuse the Windows Data Protection API (DPAPI) to recover user- or machine-protected master keys and decrypt selected DPAPI-protected credentials and data, including supported Windows Credential Manager/Vault records, Remote Desktop Connection Manager credentials, and certificate private keys. Success depends on the matching user or machine secret, cached DPAPI key material, or domain backup key. Browser stores require application-specific handling; modern Chromium App-Bound entries are not decrypted by generic DPAPI key recovery alone.
