    <remarks>
      <attribution license="cc4" from="Microsoft" modified="false" />
      <para>A <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> object specifies access rights for a registry key, and also specifies how access attempts are audited. Access rights to the registry key are expressed as rules, with each access rule represented by a <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule" /> object. Each auditing rule is represented by a <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAuditRule" /> object.</para>
      <para>This mirrors the underlying Windows security system, in which each securable object has at most one discretionary access control list (DACL) that controls access to the secured object, and at most one system access control list (SACL) that specifies which access attempts are audited. The DACL and SACL are ordered lists of access control entries (ACE) that specify access and auditing for users and groups. A <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule" /> or <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAuditRule" /> object might represent more than one ACE.</para>
      <block subset="none" type="note">
        <para>Windows access control security can only be applied to registry keys. It cannot be applied to individual key/value pairs stored in a key. </para>
      </block>
      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" />, <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule" />, and <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAuditRule" /> classes hide the implementation details of ACLs and ACEs. They allow you to ignore the seventeen different ACE types and the complexity of correctly maintaining inheritance and propagation of access rights. These objects are also designed to prevent the following common access control errors:</para>
      <list type="bullet">
        <item>
          <para>Creating a security descriptor with a null DACL. A null reference to a DACL allows any user to add access rules to an object, potentially creating a denial-of-service attack. A new <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> object always starts with an empty DACL, which denies all access for all users.</para>
        </item>
        <item>
          <para>Violating the canonical ordering of ACEs. If the ACE list in the DACL is not kept in the canonical order, users might inadvertently be given access to the secured object. For example, denied access rights must always appear before allowed access rights. <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> objects maintain the correct order internally. </para>
        </item>
        <item>
          <para>Manipulating security descriptor flags, which should be under resource manager control only. </para>
        </item>
        <item>
          <para>Creating invalid combinations of ACE flags.</para>
        </item>
        <item>
          <para>Manipulating inherited ACEs. Inheritance and propagation are handled by the resource manager, in response to changes you make to access and audit rules. </para>
        </item>
        <item>
          <para>Inserting meaningless ACEs into ACLs.</para>
        </item>
      </list>
      <para>The only capabilities not supported by the .NET security objects are dangerous activities that should be avoided by the majority of application developers, such as the following:</para>
      <list type="bullet">
        <item>
          <para>Low-level tasks that are normally performed by the resource manager.</para>
        </item>
        <item>
          <para>Adding or removing access control entries in ways that do not maintain the canonical ordering. </para>
        </item>
      </list>
      <para>To modify Windows access control security for a registry key, use the <see cref="M:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.GetAccessControl" /> method to get the <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> object. Modify the security object by adding and removing rules, and then use the <see cref="M:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.SetAccessControl(System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity)" /> method to reattach it. </para>
      <block subset="none" type="note">
        <para>Changes you make to a <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> object do not affect the access levels of the registry key until you call the <see cref="M:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.SetAccessControl(System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity)" /> method to assign the altered security object to the registry key.</para>
      </block>
      <para>To copy access control security from one registry key to another, use the <see cref="M:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.GetAccessControl" /> method to get a <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> object representing the access and audit rules for the first registry key, and then use the <see cref="M:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.SetAccessControl(System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity)" /> method to assign those rules to the second registry key. You can also assign the rules to a second registry key with an <see cref="Overload:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.OpenSubKey" /> or <see cref="Overload:Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.CreateSubKey" /> method that takes a <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity" /> object parameter.</para>
      <para>Users with an investment in the security descriptor definition language (SDDL) can use the <see cref="M:System.Security.AccessControl.ObjectSecurity.SetSecurityDescriptorSddlForm(System.String)" /> method to set access rules for a registry key, and the <see cref="M:System.Security.AccessControl.ObjectSecurity.GetSecurityDescriptorSddlForm(System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlSections)" /> method to obtain a string that represents the access rules in SDDL format. This is not recommended for new development.</para>

          <attribution license="cc4" from="Microsoft" modified="false" />
          <para>The recommended way to create access control rules is to use the constructors of the <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule" /> class.</para>
          <block subset="none" type="note">
            <para>Although you can specify the <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit" /> flag, there is no point in doing so. For the purposes of access control, the name/value pairs in a subkey are not separate objects. The access rights to name/value pairs are controlled by the rights of the subkey. Furthermore, since all subkeys are containers (that is, they can contain other subkeys), they are not affected by the <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit" /> flag. Finally, specifying the <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit" /> flag needlessly complicates the maintenance of rules, because it interferes with the normal combination of compatible rules.</para>

          <para>The <see cref="M:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity.AddAccessRule(System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule)" /> method searches for rules with the same user or group and the same <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType" /> as <paramref name="rule" />. If none are found, <paramref name="rule" /> is added. If a matching rule is found, the rights in <paramref name="rule" /> are merged with the existing rule.</para>
          <para>Rules cannot be merged if they have different inheritance flags. For example, if a user is allowed read access with no inheritance flags, and <see cref="M:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity.AddAccessRule(System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule)" /> is used to add a rule giving the user write access with inheritance for subkeys (<see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit" />), the two rules cannot be merged. </para>
          <para>Rules with different <see cref="T:System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType" /> values are never merged.</para>
          <para>Rules express rights in the most economical way. For example, if a user has <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.QueryValues" />, <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.Notify" /> and <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.ReadPermissions" /> rights, and you add a rule allowing <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.EnumerateSubKeys" /> rights, the user has all the constituent parts of <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.ReadKey" /> rights. If you query the user's rights, you will see a rule containing <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.ReadKey" /> rights. Similarly, if you remove <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.EnumerateSubKeys" /> rights, the other constituents of <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights.ReadKey" /> rights will reappear.</para>

            <para>Although you can specify the <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit" /> flag, there is no point in doing so. For the purposes of audit control, the name/value pairs in a subkey are not separate objects. The audit rights to name/value pairs are controlled by the rights of the subkey. Furthermore, since all subkeys are containers (that is, they can contain other subkeys), they are not affected by the <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit" /> flag. Finally, specifying the <see cref="F:System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit" /> flag needlessly complicates the maintenance of rules, because it interferes with the normal combination of compatible rules.</para>
