Password protected OLAP cubes (or OLAP databases)

#1

I develop OLAP cubes (and SQL databases). I'd like to be able to 'password
protect' the OLAP cube (in Analysis services).
This would stop the system administrator from being able to modify the OLAP
cube.
I'm able to password protext DTS packages (as COM files), and also able to
'encrypt' stored procedures (in SQL server).
I may have some flexability when working with OLAP files - but I cannot see
a simpl e 'password' option in MS Analysis services (perhaps 2005 ?)

Analysis services has no similar concept.
