      <para>Caution   The <see cref="F:System.Security.Cryptography.DataProtectionScope.LocalMachine" /> enumeration value allows multiple accounts to unprotect data.  Use this value only when you trust every account on a computer.  For most situations, you should use the <see cref="F:System.Security.Cryptography.DataProtectionScope.CurrentUser" /> value.</para>
