Remarks

The SecurePassword property provides additional security for the password while it is stored in memory, and should be used instead of Password.

When possible, prompt users to enter security credentials at runtime. If you must store credentials, use the cryptographic services provided by the Microsoft Windows .NET Framework.

This property can be accessed by any user.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the .NET Framework.
