[Axis2] Secure The Admin Password used in axis2.xml
Hi All,
I'm trying to secure/harden Axis2 server and I see that the admin
password is stored in clear text in axis2.xml as shown below.
<parameter name="userName">*admin*</parameter>
<parameter name="password">*password*</parameter>
I couldn't find much information on storing the admin password
security in official documentation [1] and earlier discussions in
mailing list [2]. Was wondering if community has any
recommendations/links in terms of storing the admin password securely
which i can use to secure the Axis installation.
Thanks for your time.
