The agent-config.xml and csi.properties files can contain passwords. By default, these passwords are not encrypted. To enable the encryption of these passwords, use the Agent Management Console to set the “encrypted” property to true for the Simple Login Module and for any LDAP discovery adaptors defined for the agent.
To allow installations to choose their own encryption algorithm and cipher provider, Unified Agent does not enable encryption by default. Therefore, it is important that you enable encryption and to set the encryption and cipher provider class.
Encryption is not enabled by default.
Use the attributes of the Security Service to specify the encryption algorithm and the cipher provider class. The attributes are encryptionAlgorithm and cipherProviderClass. The default encryption algorithm is DES and the cipher provider class is Sun’s JCE provider.
