Credential Manager (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
Credential Manager is one of several authentication services which can be used to authenticate clients accessing remote resources. Credential Manager, specifically, deals with managing credential information such as user names and passwords.
Credential Manager provides storage for cached credentials, and enables the sharing of common credentials. A credential represents information used to access resources on behalf of a user. An example of a user credential is the password of a domain user that is used to access remote file shares.
