JDBC LDAP connection with encrypted password

I am connecting to Teradata via JDBC and LDAP using the following URL format:
jdbc:teradata://myserver/LOGMECH=LDAP,LOGDATA=username@@password
The problem here is that the password is being sent out over the network as plaintext. Is there a way to make this connection so that the password is encrypted? It is my understanding that ENCRYPTDATA only encyrpts the data and not the password, so that would not be a solution for this problem.
Thanks,
