Ease the human-error potential in step 3 and 4 covered at http://commercesdn.sitecore.net/SitecoreCommerce/DeploymentGuide/en-us/index.html#Concepts/c_M_ChangesToDefaultSettings.html 
For repetitive installs, it's a pattern that can be used to update a site name etc, too.  Here I focus on the SQL Server and Sitecore credentials but other settings could be updated too (just be certain you have the right pattern to match/replace).

$dbServer ="your db server" #for Azure SQL, something like "qa2-proj-sql.database.windows.net,1433" is what you'd use
$dbuser ="SQLuser"
$dbpwd = "secret"

Note:
  -  The encyption is specific to each server, so this needs to be run separately on every IIS server
  -  ASPNet_RegIIS requires a web.config file to operate, so we have to massage our Sitecore .config into a web.config format it will understand

Steps:
1) Copy current Connectionstrings.config to a file named "web.config"
2) insert <configuration> node surrounding the <connectionStrings> XML
3) run this new web.config file through aspNet_RegIIS...

This is the Rackspace Managed Services for Sitecore (https://www.rackspace.com/digital/sitecore) script for security hardening a Sitecore environment 

If the Execution Policy does not allow execution, you may need to run the following interactively to allow a scoped session bypass. 
This is secure as it requires interaction on server and cannot be executed from a script:
