Introduction
This is a collection of encryption libraries intended to encrypt and store
passwords outside of source code.
Some advantages of keeping credentials out of source code are:
- Credentials are not passed around when source code is shared.
- Unintentional exposure of source code does not reveal credentials.
- Read-access to source code can be much more permissive.
- Source code can be checked into version control systems without concern
for exposure of credentials. - It is easier to change credentials without having to worry about changing
all instances. - Leaving credentials in source code leads to poor password management in
general. If changing a credential requires you to change code, you are less
likely to want to do it.
