    Encrypting the Authentication Password

    It is recommended to encrypt your authentication passwords. Otherwise, it remains stored and visible in the configuration file (shared connection) or in the graph itself (internal connection). Thus, the authentication password could be seen in one of these two locations.

    The authentication password can be encrypted using Secure Parameters. Encrypt the password and store the encrypted value in the graph parameter. The parameter has to be marked as secure. See Secure Graph Parameters.
