Why char array is favored over string for the storage of passwords?

Answer Posted / Kristu Rai Toppo

"A char array is often favored over a String for storing passwords because a char array retains the characters as plain characters without any additional wrapping objects. This means that char arrays use less memory compared to Strings, and the password data is not subjected to automatic encodings or decodings like Strings are. However, it's important to remember that even though using char arrays may help in storing passwords securely, proper encryption techniques should still be applied to protect against unauthorized access."
