==Recent Windows versions==
In [[Windows Vista]], GINA has been entirely replaced by '''Credential Providers''', which allow for significantly increased flexibility in supporting multiple credential collection methods. To support the use of multiple GINA models, a complex chaining method used to be required and custom GINAs often did not work with [[fast user switching]]. GINA libraries do not work with Windows Vista and later Windows versions. One difference, however, is that GINA could completely replace the Windows logon user interface; Credential Providers cannot.
==Populat culture==
There is a common trend of mispronunciation of the word GINA. Microsoft later renamed this component to PLAP due to the phonetic connotations.
