What are the advantages of using CredSSP-based password extraction over traditional lsass memory dumping?

The main advantages are that it does not require manipulating the lsass process, thereby bypassing LSA protections like Credential Guard or antivirus hooks, and it can often be executed with standard user privileges after Group Policy is modified. This method is less noisy and more likely to evade detection compared to tools like Mimilib for dump files. However, it requires triggering a new login (e.g., lock screen or reboot) for the policy to take effect.
