Hi Sergej,
If you are talking about SecureStringStorage.dat from http://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/9030/, isn't it already encrypted in the file?
If you are concerned that the password is stored in decrypted form in the project variable, then why not to get it right before you need it? You will lose in performance a bit, but I don't think that it will be considerable loss. Anyway, the password will be decrypted before entering into control, so you can always get it by setting a breakpoint or performing a debug print to the log. I.e. security is useless if you have access to debugger and sources and this is the case with almost every test project.
