[ComVisibleAttribute(false)]
public SecureString SecurePublisherPassword { get; set; }
[ComVisibleAttribute(false)]

Remarks
The SecurePublisherPassword property provides additional security for the password while it is stored in memory and should be used instead of PublisherPassword.
When possible, use Windows Authentication.
When possible, prompt users to enter security credentials at runtime. If you must store credentials, use the cryptographic services provided by the Microsoft Windows .NET Framework.
Stored passwords used to connect to the Publisher are never returned. Accessing this property will generate a PasswordWriteOnlyException exception.
This property is used only when PublisherSecurityMode is set to Standard.
Thread Safety
Any public static (Shared in Microsoft Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
