This is just a guess as it an age since I messed with my ncf's. Isn't an ncf basically a zipped file with bitmaps and a xml config file in it. Can zip files be password protected in the zip utility? I use winrar which can do this. I wonder what would happen if you renamed the ncf to .zip and password protected it (and or encrypted it). Then renamed it backto ncf and uploaded protected file to the remote ? I'm probably talking rubbish here but it might be worth a try, at your own risk of course.
