How to protect user credentials (persisted in Neo4J) in JavaScript client code?

I am using Neo4J REST-services and passing encrypted username and password as a part of authentication header. But any other person will have access to my username and password as it is in javascript file.

Any suggestion on how can I protect my Neo4J credentials.

If you are using only JavaScript client without any your own backend there is no way to hide them.

As you would do with any other cred, you would store it externally in a config server or environment variable.

That's how all cloud PaaS solutions do it too. So it will only be visible to your process.
