I share your concern. We're using https://pypi.org/project/keyring/ to store the password in the system keyring. The backend is different, depending on the platform you're running this on:

If you consider those as safe it should be. ;-) You're free not to safe the password and specify it on each run. But then you could see it in the process list, which might be another issue when working on a shared device...
