Does HCO encrypt the passwords of Windows users accounts?

Hi.

I need to know if in the documentation in HCO specific the follow information or something similar:

Does HCO encrypt/hide the passwords of Windows users accounts?

This is because I need document this information in my workplace for security reasons, so that they gives me the windows account for monitoring some servers in HCO, but I didn't find this information in the documentation.

I trust you mean the windows user accounts that you use to collect wmi information from servers?

They have documentation on this, but the only I found is on the secondary support url: Credentials are securely encrypted in SolarWinds Platform products
