James -

I believe that someone can alter their security-id since it is a parameter 
for the portlet.  what you need to do is attach a security role to the 
security-id that would not allow a user to have the ability to customize 
that aspect of their portlet.

For example, other parameters such as TimeToLive can be seen by any user as 
long as there is not security restriction on the parameter.  Once you place 
a security restriction on the parameter, a user must fit that profile to 
change it.  This is the way things were in the last release, maybe someone 
can chime in with their experience?
