Credential Guard and Virtualization-based security can protect authentication secrets. move information can be found at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/access-protection/credential-guard/credential-guard

Probably best to take a look at the documentation! For DG: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/device-security/device-guard/device-guard-deployment-guide

Super high-level, DG is about strongly controlling what is allowed to run on client devices with Code Integrity, and optional virtualization based protection of the Windows processes that do this via hypervisor protected code integrity. Think of Code Integrity as the modern version of AppLocker, though both can be used in harmony for added protection.

For CG, Michiko has got you covered I believe.
