I know where that menu item is, i want to remove it as a security issue so others can't see my history if they happen to be at my desk.

So you want to remove this menu item completely?
Do you know that in macOS if you will use Mission Control (application windows) you can see recent files opened in the application?
The same info about recent files you can get from context menu in Dock.
So even if you will remove recents menu in AutoCAD you can not hide all recent drawings that were opened in AutoCAD.
