Description

On Windows 8/2012 or higher, the Digest Security Provider (WDIGEST) is disabled by default. This module enables/disables
credential caching by adding/changing the value of the UseLogonCredential DWORD under the WDIGEST provider's Registry key.
Any subsequent logins will allow mimikatz to recover the plain text passwords from the system's memory.
