Use Secedit

The following link take you to - Different Ways of Giving Permissions in Your Windows Installer

From That Make use of SECEDIT method to create the necessary files(.sdb & .inf) and then go for a VBScript copy them to the local system in security/ folder and run the command line as specified; through the VBScript.
