I have set password in my pdf file. I want a best way to store its password in java. I did as the following but I think, it could be easily accessed by private hackers because it is stored as string.

pdfView.fromAsset("eng1.pdf").scrollHandle(new DefaultScrollHandle(this)).password("eng@789").load();

Is there any better solution than to store as string value? I went through many websites but didn't get the necessary solution.

@cantona_7 yes, because hard-coded string password can be easily accessed by the bad guys through java decompilers, i guess, so.. – Dibas Dauliya May 14 '20 at 09:14
