Description
Currently Sqoop store password in the sqoop metastore in the form of plain text.While running command,
sqoop job --show <job_name> , password becomes visible as plain text.Also anyone can see the password in metastore db since it is visible in a plain text.In order to provide more security, CryptoFileLoader class is extended to store password in metastore in encrypted form.Sqoop will decrypt the password during exec job.In case of show job , the password will be visible as encrypted manner.User can pass any algorithm and passphrase to encrypt the password in a similar way as it happens in case of storing password in the File.
