Remarks

This property may be set to a password to protect the data further.

When protecting data without specifying a password any application running under the same user account can unprotect the data. By specifying a password another piece of information is required to unprotect the data.

This may be set before calling Protect. If a password was specified when protecting data it must be set before calling Unprotect.

This setting is not applicable when UseCNG is set to True.
