How to hide passwords? Gets exposed because of ExecuteSH opt

I would like to know how to hide the passwords in DataStage.

I know we can use Encrypted User Defined variable option in DataStage Administrator. But If someone sets up a job with a routine and uses ExecuteSH option rather than ExecuteSHSilent then it exposes the password in the job log. How to restrict it ?

Thanks for the help...

Don't put them in the shell script to begin with. Redirect them for example by reading a file or using an environment variable.
