What are the common methods to extract credentials from the lsass.exe process?

Common methods include using mimikatz directly with `privilege::debug` and `sekurlsa::logonPasswords`, or obtaining a dump file of the lsass.exe process via tools like procdump, comsvcs.dll, or PowerShell scripts. The dump file is then analyzed locally with mimikatz using the `sekurlsa::minidump` command. These methods rely on the `MiniDumpWriteDump()` API, which security products often hook to prevent dumping. For a deeper dive, refer to the original article.
