A package might encrypt and decrypt text before the text is persisted in a response file or in the installRegistry directory. By default, Installation Manager uses a static password key to encrypt the text. This password key might be decrypted and used to decrypt the encrypted text. You can use a different password key to encrypt the text by using the -passwordKey option. If you provide a password key, you must start the instance of Installation Manager with the same password key each time to access the encrypted data. The password key must be used when you start Installation Manager in wizard mode, console mode, command-line mode, and silent mode.
You can encrypt a value to use in a response file by using the encryptString command. Values that are encrypted in the response file or in the installRegistry directory are specific to a package. For information about the values that are encrypted, see the package documentation.
