Go - password security in binary

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8935729

Question

I intend to save a password/secret key in my Go application to be used in communication with some other applications. I wonder how to secure it from for example someone obtaining the binary and searching for it in some hex viewer. Are such security practices common, or am I worrying too much?
