Description

sreekanth (Migrated from SEC-3123) said:

Its good to have encrypted property value support for property file, now we have to use jasypt to enable this functionality unfortunately jasypt doesn't have support for @PropertySource (java config). Though jasypt support or not its good to have it as a part of spring or spring security framework itself, since it adds value to the end user by not fiddling with third party libraries. So primary request is to do a inbuilt support for encrypted property value in spring/spring security framework.

No source files, tests, or entry points are identified.
