Remarks
This is a safety wrapper around the ProtectedData class such that it can be used with
LocalMachine scope regardless of current user. This is especially important for applications
that may be running as user account that has no association to the current user, e.g., an Azure AD
user or database account when authenticated using AdoSecurityProvider.
