<passwordwallet> element
Introduced in iXperion 1.3 build 3, you can know store generic username/password combinations within the Smartsite.Security.config configuration file. The accounts are stored within the node passwordwallet, which will be automatically encrypted when using the Config Editor or the Config Protect tool.
The accounts stored within the passwordwallet can e.g. be used whenever you need to call a webservice which is secured with an username and password. Instead of hardcoding the username and password parameters within the se:webservice macro (not very secure and not easily to maintain when you need to deploy it to another site), you now just need to include two viper calls to retrieve the username and password from the passwordwallet. So, there's no need anymore to have username/password combinations as plain text within your SXML.
When deploying the item(s) containing the webservice call(s) to another site which should use different accounts, you don't need to adjust the sxml. Adjusting the accounts within the smartsite.security.config will suffice.
