in thread security of garbage collection

You're putting your worry in the wrong place. To accomplish what you're concerned about needs having access that has already completely compromised the machine.

While there are scenarios where this is an issue, you're not working on one of them. (If you were, you wouldn't have to be asking here... :)

    I understand Elian. It is really only the sysadmin and anything run as root that could do this, and then the human at least can do lots of easier things if he wanted to. It's just a "feel good" thing I guess. Thank you very much for thinking about this.
