Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

MS-CHAP (Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) does not require the authenticator to store reversibly encrypted passwords. Instead, it operates by having the authenticator store a hashed version of the password, which is used to verify the challenge response from the client without needing to store or transmit the password in clear text.
