If the data is in the program, it is visible to anyone you give 
the program to.

Alternatives would be asking the user for sensitive info 
separately from the exe like a config file that they must fill in 
or a password they must type when it starts up.

Or just don't distribute the program to anyone who isn't 
authorized to use it.
