Hey Team,

Is there a easy way of securing the password in a connection string?

I have the connection string working but the password is in plain site and this is less than idea.

Research has indicated lots of possible ways but I don't have the ability to utilise Windows Authentication or to change the provided password even.

Thanks In Advance.

Anthony

Hi Antony,

 

please remind to the "research user" that by default in MS this is not possible for applications running inside a services innocent.

More in general that you can't use Windows authentication because Scanshare runs inside a service which has the identity of Local System, a Windows service, in general, isn't able to authenticate using Windows authentication because a user logon is required which isn't available inside Windows services.

 

We remind you that only the administrator user has access to the workflow designer section, and therefore also to the DB connection, and not to a "normal" user within Scanshare.

 

Have a nice weekend cool!

Best regards,

Luca

THE BLACK MIRROR IS POWERFUL. Who could believe that I would be rich someday? but Baba Powers made it possible with the black mirror which I purchased from him. Thanks to him because the black mirror reveals the secrets, unlock the power. I came across various testimonials which state how the black mirror has been of good and great help to them. I also contacted Baba Powers on his email;  Babablackmirrors@gmail.com   to also experience it for myself. I am really happy to get the black mirror. Thank you Baba Powers for your special black mirror. You can also view his website and you will see amazing testimonies from people that he has helped.
