I answer your question: it could be, for example, a password of a user of a database, put in a Java variable or used in an annotation, or a secret key for an API.
Any way of hiding the secret value in the source code would be appropriate., using Maven or nor.

I suppose you could encrypt the value in a String field or function in one class and then have another class that decrypts that value. This would be a slightly more laborious version of hiding the key under the welcome mat, but not much safer. Maybe I'm misunderstanding. Is the secret value for Maven's use?

I have added a Windows user variable in the system parameters but I find the process a bit cumbersome. Is there a better way of hiding a secret value than using an environment variable? A similar problem, but perhaps more difficult to solve: how to hide a secret value used in an *annotation* in my code (I can't use System.getenv). I use Maven to build the project.
