The Security Account Manager (SAM) is a database stored as a registry file in Windows NT, Windows 2000, and later versions of Windows. It stores users' passwords in a hashed format (in an LM hash and an NTLM hash). Since a hash function is one-way, this provides some measure of security for the storage of the passwords.
In an attempt to enhance the security of the SAM database against offline software cracking, Microsoft introduced the SYSKEY utility in Windows NT 4.0.
