Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
All sensitive information such as passwords should be moved out of the Provisoning Application's Config Map application.properties into a Secret resource. Examples that I found are:

  • crowd.application.password
  • jasypt.encryptor.password
  • spring.mail.password

Describe the solution you'd like
Create a secret that holds the sensitive information required by the Provisioning Application.

Research direction

Start by locating the Provisioning Application's application.properties and the ConfigMap that supplies it, then trace how the application currently receives crowd.application.password, jasypt.encryptor.password, and spring.mail.password. Done means the sensitive values are held in a Kubernetes Secret and are no longer stored in the ConfigMap.
