You are correct my friend.

@Erik for now I would say, move forward with the plan and let's make use
of AGSec 1.3.0 in the future, we will address this issue providing
interfaces for encryption
(http://staging.aerogear.org/docs/planning/roadmaps/AeroGearSecurity/)

A second option would be: do not store the shared secret and let the
developers choose how they want to store it providing their own
encryption. Sorry I'm for my dumb-ish on Cordova, not sure if that's
possible.
