Encryption Handling in PoolParty

PoolParty uses state-of-the-art encryption methods and the random salt key value generation.

Passwords are not stored in cleartext. Before storage or validation, Keycloak hashes the passwords using the PBKDF2 hashing algorithm.

To make sure that the best possible encryption level is in place, add the following lines to The poolparty.properties File:

encryption.password=PasswordOfYourChoice
encryption.salt=<default, will be set by installer>
encryption.keyStrength=256
