with maven you can easily specify settings.xml location, e.g:
mvn -s custom/dir/settings.xml package
Is there a similiar way to specify custom security-settings.xml?
The reasoning behind this is simple: to easily distribute it via a local repository. Now, security is NOT a concern - it's all on the intranet.

The Maven settings file, settings. xml , is usually kept in the . m2 directory inside your home directory.
Navigate to path {M2_HOME}\conf\ where M2_HOME is maven installation folder. Open file settings. xml in edit mode in some text editor. Update the desired path in value of this tag.
A Maven settings. xml file defines values that configure Maven execution in various ways. Most commonly, it is used to define a local repository location, alternate remote repository servers, and authentication information for private repositories.
This was requested as MNG-4853. Although not implemented directly, a workaround is suggested:
I've verified that
-Dsettings.security=path/to/security-settings.xmlworks
As detailed in the announcement blog post, you can also use the master password relocation feature. Write an ~/.m2/security-settings.xml file with a redirection in it:
<settingsSecurity>
<relocation>/Volumes/mySecureUsb/secret/settings-security.xml</relocation>
</settingsSecurity>
