Securely Store Logon Credentials for Database Scans

When scanning database records, the FSA connects to the target database using the authentication method specified in the scanning job definition.

As a secure alternative to storing a database user’s password in plain text in the XML job definition file, you can use wgncred.exe to cache the password; the required component ID is: FSADBSCAN
