Create password protected zip file in google apps/drive

Question

Does anyone know a way to create a password protected zip file much as I could in 7zip but using a Google Apps script. I can create an unprotected zip using this script: Creating a zip file...

However, we need to send a CSV file containing confidential info to our contractor and the conditions of our service require it to be zipped and password protected. Any ideas?

As there no password in Google class yet implemented you have to encrypt file before zipping and provide customer with decode utility. Meanwhile submit request to Google.
