Splunk Enterprise Security

In Enterprise Security's credential manager, are the passwords encrypted? If yes, what level of encryption is it?

This is just a question if credential manager uses encryption.

Yes, but anyone with a splunk login that has the capability in it's role:list_storage_passwords can dump them. Basically it is good enough to say the credentials are not stored in the clear in configuration files.
