As for the explanation that "only five technicians in the sector can program it" well, come on, that is a bit silly. There are billions of hyperdrive engineers in the Star Wars universe and every second a new one rolls off the production lines.
People design these things and then add the security that stops them going into suns and stuff, the idea that it is this ultra secret technology to remove an override from a commercially created space engine is a little bit of a stretch.
