You could modify the source for setup.exe provided by the Firebird
installer providng your own files. IIRC, it's an Inno Setup script for
the Windows installer but I may be wrong.
An alternative would be to incorporate the Firebird files directly in
your application installer. I'd suggest asking your question on the
Firebird .Net provider group as there's more chance of good responses
(haven't touched .Net myself in years).

PS: perhaps ecurity2.fdb is copied to the system32 directory by the
batch command/installer? No idea, don't run FB server on Windows...
