Shared secret properties

The Shared Secret Hashing properties page defines the properties used to configure the level of protection of the shared secret code.

The shared secret is used by an account owner to retrieve a new or changed password for an account when the system is configured to not email passwords in the clear (that is, the value of enrole.workflow.notifypassword=false). This property determines whether the stored shared secret is hashed for additional protection.

enrole.sharedsecret.hashed

Do not change this property key and value unless you are a qualified administrator.

Specifies whether the shared secret code is hashed (secure) or not hashed (not secure).

Values include:

• true – Store the shared secret as hashed.
• false – Store the shared secret as not hashed.

Example (default):

enrole.sharedsecret.hashed=false
