[jira] [Commented] (SQOOP-501) Infrastructure to support input of sensitive information like passwords in the client shell

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-501?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13470040#comment-13470040 ] 

Harsh J commented on SQOOP-501:
-------------------------------

Or we could use password files instead of parameters? Oozie uses Sqoop and passing stdin input from Oozie may not be a good thing to do if Sqoop expects that.

> For example, a password should be entered in a manner that keeps it secure through the input and the remaining session.
