Raw encrypted data is going to be raw bytes without regard to representation. I don't think you can expect to keep such data in shell variables raw, NULLS and things which just can't be represented as an ASCII string will mess it up. Even if you somehow got them in, you'll have real trouble passing them to anything else.
In what way do they need to be used?
You could pipe the data from a file into openssl base64 to get safe base64-encoded data(which is always representable in ASCII) to store in your shell variables, then get the binary data back later from it and pipe it where it needs to go.

base64
base64(n) Text encoding & decoding binary data base64(n)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
base64 - base64-encode/decode binary data
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8
package require base64 ?2.4.2?
::base64::encode ?-maxlen maxlen? ?-wrapchar wrapchar? string
::base64::decode string
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
This package provides procedures to encode binary data into base64 and back.
::base64::encode ?-maxlen maxlen? ?-wrapchar wrapchar? string
Base64 encodes the given binary string and returns the encoded result. Inserts the character wrapchar every maxlen characters of
output. wrapchar defaults to newline. maxlen defaults to 76.
Note well: If your string is not simple ascii you should fix the string encoding before doing base64 encoding. See the examples.
The command will throw an error for negative values of maxlen, or if maxlen is not an integer number.
::base64::decode string
Base64 decodes the given string and returns the binary data. The decoder ignores whitespace in the string.
EXAMPLES
% base64::encode "Hello, world"
SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxk
% base64::encode [string repeat xyz 20]
eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6
eHl6eHl6eHl6
% base64::encode -wrapchar "" [string repeat xyz 20]
eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6eHl6
# NOTE: base64 encodes BINARY strings.
% set chemical [encoding convertto utf-8 "Cu2088Hu2081u2080Nu2084Ou2082"]
