That's not a function of Tomcat, nor should it be.  It would be the job
of whatever authentication mechanism the Realm you use interacts with.
The default MemoryRealm and associated tomcat-users.xml file are toys
that are not intended for production use.  The other Realms Tomcat
supports should be used for real-world security, since they can
front-end proper credential storage implementations.
