You don't need to hand-roll your own stuff for this:
Encrypting and Decrypting Configuration Sections[^]. This is transparent from the code point of view: you encrypt the information in the web.config and the framework decrypts it for you when you access it.

You might need to consider making an exportable key if using a web-farm.
