Where is the user password registered?

If you are using the Visual Guard .net authentication mechanism the password is registered in the repository. The password is then stored after being encrypted in an irreversible way (use of the algorithm SHA256).

But it is also possible to use other authentication mechanisms, like the Windows one, in that case the password will then be stored and administrated in the Active Directory. The VG console automatically reads users from the Active Directory so there is no need to enter the user again.
