I am trying to solve a security issue with my webapp. We are using
tomcat's connection pooling for our webapp. The database username and
password be specified in the server.xml file (as shown below). 

Is there a way to encrypt the password, and tomcat should decrypt the
password before establishing the database connection. We are trying to
do this without changing the tomcat code itself. Is it a setting in
tomocat, or is there a 3rd party software?

Any suggestions/solutions are appreciated. Thanks

</parameter>
<parameter>
<name>password</name>
<value>mypassword</value>
</parameter>
</ResourceParams>

Thanks!
