Registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY stores the Lsass policy database. This database contains local system security policy settings which controls, among others:

which domains are trusted to authenticate logon attempts
which users are allowed to access the system
on what channels these users are allowed to access the system (interactive, network, service logons)
which privileges are assigned to a user
how users are audited
logon information for cached domain logons and service logons

The values for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY are physically stored on the harddisk in the file %SystemRoot%\system32\config\SECURITY.

In order to see anything, SYSTEM privileges are needed (see also NT Autority\System). Such privileges can be gained for example with the Sysinternals tool PsExec.
