Helix failure `EPT_S_NOT_REGISTERED`
We've been seeing a lot of Helix runs fail with a number of messages related to EPT_S_NOT_REGISTERED:
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception : The Local Security Authority cannot be contacted
System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException : There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper.
The failures only occur on Windows and inconsistently affect subsets of the IIS, HTTPS, Data Protection, and Certificate tests.
AFAICT, EPT_S_NOT_REGISTERED indicates that lsass.exe is not available.

Sdk was is seeing validation errors in windows hosts https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/issues/42870
did this start with the new helix rollout last week?
Merged https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/pull/57431 that hopefully avoids some of the template test problems.
This is the same problem as https://github.com/dotnet/dnceng/issues/3844 AFAICT.
