 * Hi,
 * Are the passwords stored in the WordPress arbitrary and generated by the plugin
   after sync/authentication?
 * We have major concerns if this plugin is storing the same password as the user
   has in AD.

 * By default passwords are neither stored in WordPress’ database nor are they synced
   from AD to WordPress – because of the security reasons you mentioned.
    Please
   take a look into the documentation: [http://active-directory-wp.com/docs/Configuration/Password.html](http://active-directory-wp.com/docs/Configuration/Password.html)
