SuppressionPolicy is a Value Name.
This is a registry key...
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\Shellex\PropertySheetHandlers\CryptoSignMenu
The registry stores data in a tree format. Each node in the tree is called a
key. Each key can contain both subkeys and data entries called values.
Sometimes, the presence of a key is all the data that an application
requires; other times, an application opens a key and uses the values
associated with the key. A key can have any number of values, and the values
can be in any form.
Each of the trees under My Computer is a key. The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key has
the following subkeys: HARDWARE, SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE, and SYSTEM. Each
value consists of a value name and its associated data, if any.

Verbs can be suppressed through policy settings by adding a
SuppressionPolicy value to the verb's key. Set the value of
SuppressionPolicy to the policy ID. If the policy is turned on, the verb and
its associated shortcut menu entry are suppressed. For possible policy ID
values, see the RESTRICTIONS enumeration.

computers on the network. Applications should remove the ability to search
for computers on the network.
