About the plain text shared_secret of the pam_radius client

The plain text shared_secret is recorded in /etc/raddb/server of the pam_radius client. I am worried about the security of the plain text shared key, Although I have strengthened the file permissions. So is there any other more secure way to connect? Thank you!

The secret has to be stored somewhere. There is no "perfect" place for it.
