Description
Read or write a Windows registry security descriptor remotely.
In READ mode, the `FILE` option can be set to specify where the security descriptor should be written to.
The following format is used: ``` key: <registry key> security_info: <security information> sd: <security descriptor as a hex string> ```
In WRITE mode, the `FILE` option can be used to specify the information needed to write the security descriptor to the remote registry. The file must follow the same format as described above.
