TLS is transport layer security. It is a means of establishing a secure communication channel to a remote site. I don't know as a TLS encrypted password is supposed to be. So if someone told me that I have a TLS encrypted password I guess that I would be worried.
My Android phone demands a password to do anything at all except accept an incoming call and dail 911. 10 consecutive password failures will turn it into a paperweight. That is why I don't worry about losing it.
