The `securityUtility encode` command supports plain text obfuscation for Open Liberty.

This command obfuscates text that you provide, such as a password, based on the type that is specified.
This command obfuscates text that you provide, such as a password, based on the encoding type that you specify.

If no text is provided, the command enters interactive mode.
Interactive mode prompts you to enter and confirm your text input, rather than provide text on the same line as the command.

Enclose any text with spaces in quotation marks.
If your password includes special characters, you must escape each special character to help ensure that the password is properly encoded. For more information, see <<pw,Check passwords for special characters>>
Special characters and escape characters might vary according to your operating system.
For example, on Unix systems, `pa$$W0rd` must be provided as `pa\$\$W0rd`.
If your password includes special characters, you must escape each special character to help ensure that the password is properly encoded. For more information, see <<pw,Check passwords for special characters>>.
