Since you have a sudoers file which completely makes security non-existent, this will block rm for a particular user for at least 10 seconds.
It also will, for that user, to break a lot of existing shell script code. So expect a problem ticket from that user saying 'I cannot run "X" '
In the user's home directory change .profile to be owned by root, with 644 protections.
Next at the top of the profile, add the line
There are other slightly more realistic possibilities using file ACL's on /usr/bin/rm to block the user from executing that file. If you understand ACL's and your system supports them. For example, on Linux try the setfacl command. Check the manual page first.
That user has to logout/login for this to take 'effect' If the user has to run a lot of login scripts from .profile after that alias, there is a good chance the user will not be able to login.
This is NOT a reasonable solution, it is an answer to keep you happy. There is no solution. This whole thing sounds like ignorant management dictating really bad changes. Sorry.
