It provides guidelines for driver developers (typically the hardware vendor) to develop their drivers so that they will function correctly, both under the high-privilege LocalSystem account (such as in Microsoft Windows XP) or the low-privilege LocalService account (such as in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and later).
