I'm too lazy to check the code myself, so I posted a question on their forums: https://community.mybb.com/thread-219582.html
Anyways, as long as you're using unique passwords and non-easy-to-guess passwords, then the point of failure is rarely due to weak encryption. I've made sure the database and server are secure - and will continue to monitor this and continue to do so.
There's a modification for myBB to add encryption but I'm skeptical using a mod for this as it would surely break stuff in future updates, etc.
