Hi, I'm currently using LSC to connect a MySQL database (connected to
Wordpress) to an Ldap server.
We are looking to have user information created on MySQL transfer over to Ldap.
Wordpress uses a hashing algorithm to store passwords, which cannot be
decrypted, so doesn't send a plain text password to Ldap.
We can't store the passwords on the MySQL database, as it's on a web server,
and seems to be a bad practice.
I would like to use an end to end encryption method (like AES 128), but can't
figure out if there's a way to do it so that:
A) Wordpress encrypts the password and stores it using wcrypt.
B) LSC decrypts the password using the security utilities.
Is this possible, or does the password ALSO have to be EnCRYPTED using the .key
file from LSC?
Could I encrypt within PHP and then decrypt with the LSC method?
If so how?
If not, is there another methodology that would be equally secure but work?
Thanks for your help,
Nate Smith.
