Can you set up the user with an initial menu and initial program, where
the only thing the profile can do is operate from that menu, or sign-off? 
I've been thinking of a separate library for look-up data, work-files, and
programs specific to that user's tasks.  I also made a new subsystem for
the user's initial sign-in (with a unique ascii-art sign-in screen  -
thanks Art, Vern, and all). 

In other words, my answer to your problem is to try to limit the grazing
range to fenced in and protected stuff.
