Hi,

Couldn't find anything relevant in the the docs or the lists, so I thought I'd ask here..

Is there a pattern commonly followed regarding storage of passwords or other credential type data in core data..? Given the existence and security profile of the KeyChain, it would clearly be best to keep passwords there, but can I map this into a core data model so that I keep a reference of some kind to a password (or other credential, such as an SSH key) thats really stored in the keychain in the core data model rather than the actual value..? Or am I over thinking this and it's really better in this instance just to store such values in the core data store itself.?


any advice/pointers would be appreciated,

 regards,
  David
