Remarks
The TokenInformationClass enumeration is used with the NtQueryInformationToken Win32 API function to specify which piece of information to retrieve from an access token.
Access tokens are security objects that describe the security attributes of a process or thread. They contain information about the user account, group memberships, privileges, and other security-related data.
By specifying a member of TokenInformationClass, you can selectively retrieve specific details about the token, allowing for fine-grained control over security-related operations.
Important: This enumeration is part of the Windows API and is typically accessed through P/Invoke in .NET. Direct manipulation of these values requires a deep understanding of Windows security concepts.
