Endre Kovacs commented on RANGER-1643:
--------------------------------------

As per offline discussions with [~zsombor] : 
Moving out those (secret) keys from the `ranger-admin-default-site.xml ` and 
storing them in database (as RangerService instances end up in db) may 
introduce security concern(s) 
* these db rows could possibly be queryable over the network. storing them on a 
well guarded ranger-admin node in .xml file may possibly be more secure.

> Handle multiple comma in credentials ...

> Currently, PasswordUtils parses the encryption configuration based on the 
> presence of a comma character. The actual password itself may have comma 
> characters. We should fix this to allow the user with the password or we 
> should remove the code that handles the password without having encryption 
> configuration as part of the input string.
