password encryption for native authentication

[Katherine Marsden]

Does Derby implement some sort of password encryption for native 
authentication?

Sometimes,  I need to speak toward Derby's encryption capabilities in 
the context of international export.  Normally I can just defer to the 
java implementation for things like database encryption or SSL/TSL, but 
I wonder if some encryption code has been added for Native 
Authentication that needs to be considered.

Thanks
