Remote admin of Software Update for Macs on a a Network?

Tell him to enable Remote Login on each Mac. Then he can SSH into each one and run this command from the Terminal:

sudo softwareupdate -i -a

That should satisfy him because it's:
1. Secure; and
2. He can blow some company time figuring out how to automate/script it.

Is there a way to adapt this command to approve only Security patches?

Also, adapt the command line to include an admin password for that specific computer?

Thanks!
