Hi all people!!



Could you tell me how Oracle stores the passwords?. I mean, what
encryptation method Oracle uses?. Is there a tool to decrypt the
passwords?.



I am trying to check the quality of the password used by users and I
could not find any tool or way to decrypt them.



I would also like to use the same encryption method to encode password
managed internally by an application.



Thanks.
