sa password

  • Does anyone know if the sa password is encrypted when it is stored?

    Thanks.

  • Yes, it's encrypted in the master database with the internal pwdencrypt function.  It's a one-way encryption (there's no pwddecrypt function).

    Note: if you have registration settings for Enterprise Manager that use standard logins (such as sa) then they are sort of encrypted but beware because they can be extracted.
