It is hardcoded when amanda is configured (--with-security-file).
You can find the value with: amgetconf build.security_file
You must reconfigure amanda if you want to change it.

Ahoi!

is there a config option to tell amanda where look for it? Because moving the file to /etc/ gives the following:

ERROR: hostname: [Can't get realpath of the security file '/usr/local/etc/amanda/security.conf': No such file or directory]

the root user

$ man amanda-security.conf

That's why it is by default in /etc and not in /etc/amanda which must be
writable by the amanda user.
