If you're not going to encrypt your passwords within your database, you
might consider creating a validation list object, and storing the user IDs
and passwords in there. In a validation list you can encrypt a password. And
the biproduct is that end-users cannot query the information in the
validation list.

Subject: Password security


Hello,

I am working on a tool development. The tool can be run by certain users
defined in my database. I do not want to give access to this database to any
user except the program using that database. The user should not see the
password by running the query. How can I maintain this security?
