SDK: Authentication - Winlogon and GINA
Winlogon, the GINA, and network providers are the components of the interactive logon model. The interactive logon procedure is normally controlled by Winlogon, MSGina.dll, and network providers. To change the interactive logon procedure, MSGina.dll can be replaced with a customized GINA DLL.
