Hardwiring in the script is probably safest as you can still access
custom properties and fields in a password-protected stack (although
you can't read them casually in a text editor).
After cloning the stack and setting its name, something like this:
if the password of stack "myNewStack" is empty then
set the password of stack "myNewStack" to "bigsecret"
end if
Then save the stack.
