For example: if one runs Stop-CloudComponent with no input one is prompted for:

server: user: password:

The password value should not be echo'd back to the screen in plaintext

Use Case(s)

A user may not want to reveal sensitive credentials during a screen sharing session.

Potential Configuration

Please consider the use of -AsSecureString when reading in the password interactively.
