What is the current recommended way of storing a password which is reversable?

I know this is not as secure as storing just a salted hash, but I need to have the orginally password available as it is is used to connect to a remote server which needs the username/password.

I am already using TDE, but I want to take the password storage a bit further.

This is on a SQL Server 2008 R2.
