Regarding security, we accomplished a level of
safety on a Unix box by having the script
substitute published parameters:


   SQLPLUS $user/$pass ...etc...


The user and password were in one sub-script which was tighly
controlled.  It would set environment variables for the
life of the main script...so no one could see them
unless they had access to the one tightly controlled
script.
