Are you saying that this is an interactive process on the system? I'd suggest you make sure this isn't some sort of email ticket that stores a password or emails it.
You could probably use 'sudo' to handle the part of authenticating the user, and run a very limited service that queried a secure system for approval and initiated the shutdown.
