+  <title>Changing the Default Password Encryption</title>
+  <para>&PRODUCT; allows you to determine the default encoding and authentication mechanism for
+    admin and user logins. Plain text user authenticator has been changed to do a simple string
+    comparison between retrieved and supplied login passwords instead of comparing the retrieved md5
+    hash of the stored password against the supplied md5 hash of the password because clients no
+    longer hash the password. The following method determines what encoding scheme is used to encode
+    the password supplied during user creation or modification.</para>
+  <para>When a new user is created, the user password is encoded by using the first valid encoder
+    loaded as per the sequence specified in the <code>UserPasswordEncoders</code> property in the
+      <filename>ComponentContext.xml</filename> or <filename>nonossComponentContext.xml</filename>
+    files. The order of authentication schemes is determined by the <code>UserAuthenticators</code>
+    property in the same files. The administrator can change the ordering of both these properties
+    as preferred. When a new authenticator or encoder is added, you can add them to this list. While
+    doing so, ensure that the new authenticator or encoder is specified as a bean in both these
+    files if they are required for both oss and non-oss components. The two properties are listed
+    below:</para>
+  <programlisting>&lt;property name="UserAuthenticators"&gt;
+         &lt;list&gt;
+            &lt;ref bean="SHA256SaltedUserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+            &lt;ref bean="MD5UserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+            &lt;ref bean="LDAPUserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+            &lt;ref bean="PlainTextUserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+        &lt;/list&gt;
+    &lt;/property&gt;
+    &lt;property name="UserPasswordEncoders"&gt;
+        &lt;list&gt;
+            &lt;ref bean="SHA256SaltedUserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+             &lt;ref bean="MD5UserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+             &lt;ref bean="LDAPUserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+            &lt;ref bean="PlainTextUserAuthenticator"/&gt;
+         &lt;/list&gt;</programlisting>
