What password encryption does Yellowfin use?

Hi,

What password encryption does Yellowfin use?

Thanks,

Hi Arnold,

We actually use 2 different types of encryption.
For user account passwords we use a one-way hash function, implemented using the
SHA-1 algorithm.

For data source connection passwords we encrypt the password using Triple DES.

Hope this is what you were after.

Regards,
David
