Ruby on Rails

If you plan on encrypting it, you'll need to store the encryption key somewhere. Someone who has access to your app_config.yml file would probably also have access to wherever you stored the encryption key.

So you probably could encrypt it, but it wouldn't really be solving anything.

Why not just worry about not letting those who shouldn't see the username and password have access to view app_config.yml?
