Password Parameter?

Hello.
I've got an odd requirement to password a particular report.Basically
the same authenticated user will have access to all reports, but this
particular report should only be available to select users(all which
share that username).
Any way to mask an ssrs parameter input so that it only shows *******?
Any way to persist that entry for 5 minutes, then have it no long be
valid. I've not tested or developed this yet, but I do suspect if I
call the report again (from asp.net reportviewer) and the default for
the parameter is null, that the previously entered value will not be
available right?
I currently have another post where i can't seem to figure out why my
report is defaulting some fields that no longer have fields, but only
when I test the report through reportviewer, and not my vs.net on my
client.
Thanks for any help or information!it would probably be better to put the report into a separate folder and
secure it via the folder. this would allow to have multiple reports with
this security requirement in the future. Parameters are not really intended
for passwords.
