Protecting Neo4J password when using neovis

Hello,

After reading this intro to using the neovis library, it looks like anyone who has access to that page has to be a "trusted" user. This is because the neo4j server's password is exposed in plain text. Is this correct? Or is there a way to use the neovis library without exposing the password to the end users?

Either a trusted user in an internal environment. Or you have to provide a username/password form which is then used.
Or you need to proxy the backend and provide a HTTP server that neovis can use to query the data.

I am giving up way on hiding passwords with neovis js, ended up developing an api as back end (server side) and plotting the network graph with visjs (I think neovis js is built based on visjs as well)
