See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We need to fix the issue: Passwords are visible on operation system level when the process is running ( command uses the password as parameter ). Thanks

For example:

dsad1er  2359796        1   0   May 03      - 38:49 dsidocsvr UVHOME=/opt/IBM/InformationServer115/Server/DSEngine ENABLESNCGUI=FALSE USEDEFAULTILOADDIR=TRUE DSPASSWORD=:!-:(hQlJ,0cb`o1E6H45?)6XWFTT RFCSERVERCOUNT=1 SAPROUTERSTRING= ACKNOWLEDGEIDOCRECEIPT=TRUE DEFAULTLANGUAGE=EN DATAFILESPATH= SNCLIBGUI= SNCQOPRUNTIME= SNCMYNAMERUNTIME= SNCX509RUNTIME=FALSE PASSWORDFILE= SAPSYSNUM=00 SNCMYNAMEGUI= DEFAULTUSERNAME=ZURDF_CPIC DESCRIPTION=IP0I100BRS SNCXCERTRUNTIME= SAPGROUP= IDOCLOGBUFFERSIZE=0 SNCQOPGUI= SNCUSERUNTIMEPARAMETERS=FALSE DSUSERNAME=AVHGDJ744@nomail.relay.ibm.com METADATAFILE= SAPMESSERVER= AUTOCLEARIDOCLOG=FALSE SNCPARTNERNAMERUNTIME= ILOADPARTNERNUMBER=KRDXACTA02 IDOCPORTVERSION=3 DEFAULTCLIENT=100 SNCPARTNERNAMEGUI= READMETADATAFROMFILE=FALSE ALLOWSAPTORUNJOBS=TRUE SAPAPPSERVER=ip0db.pok.ibm.com ENABLESNCRUNTIME=FALSE LISTENFORIDOCS=TRUE NAME=IP0I100BRS SNCXCERTGUI= ISDOMAINNAME=ibmkp1er.portsmouth.uk.ibm.com:82 SNCX509GUI=FALSE DEFAULTILOADDIR= MSGSVRROUTERSTRING= SAPSYSID= REFSERVERPROGID=actarw SNCLIBRUNTIME= ILOADDESTPARTNERNUMBER=IP0I100BRS DSSERVERNAME=IBMKP1ER USELOADBALANCING=FALSE DEFAULTPASSWORD=:!-;$TsqFB`|@@m|TP7v5?)6XWFTT

As you can see the password is opentext in the process ,Encrypted password can be cracked as well, it is not compliant with IBM password policy.
