This page last changed on Sep 08, 2008 by jlargman.
Confluence uses an algorithm to hash local users' passwords. The result for the password 'admin' is: x61Ey612Kl2gpFL56FT9weDnpSo4AV8j8+qx2AuTHdRyY036xxzTTrw10Wq3+4qQyB+XURPWx1ONxp3Y3pB37A== The encryption algorithm is based on BouncyCastle's SHA1-512 implementation.
