Provider of password security policies?

Content providers encapsulate data, providing centralized management of data shared between apps.

https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-providers.html

Seems to provide access to a password database but I don’t know under what circumstances this database is used.

This provider is only usable by Samsung apps.

I see a com.android.security.PASSWORD_EXPIRED intent filter in the AndroidManifest so my guess is it handles password policies.

For example: A policy could force a user to change their password after a certain amount of time. That’s a common policy in enterprise work.
