Can you talk them into using two factor authentication mechanisms such as
SecureID/ACE or perhaps use PKI?  If portability is an issue, RSA has modules
that will allow you to dynamically and securely authenticate from anywhere
using SecureID and a ACE server.  You can also store digital certs on a token
from Rainbow or other (USB so no reader necessary) and use IIS's support of
PKI and certificate authentication/mapping to your NT accounts.

Passwords will always equal non secure.
