ABSTRACT:
A method in a data processing system for providing security to target passwords in a global sign on system centralized database. In a preferred embodiment, a target password is received by the global sign on system. The target password is encrypted in a user selected encryption manner to create an encrypted password. The encrypted password and an indication of encryption manner chosen is then stored in the centralized database.
