Obscured Value Passphrase Provider provide a mechanism for using a passphrase that is stored directly in the configuration. That value will be encrypted, but the encryption will use a hard-coded key, and a determined attacker may be able to obtain the clear-text value, so you should not rely purely on this obfuscation to ensure that the value remains secret.
