I missed the secure it part.

Andy, if you have so little faith in the pipe that you are planning to use that you feel you need to use a rope or cable, you should spring for better pipe. The difference in price between junk pipe such as 100psi poly and heavier 200psi poly is minimal.

You don't need a safety line.

All you need to do is warm the pipe up properly and use insert adapters with nice sharp edges along with double clamps.

I can tell you from experience that a "safety rope" will break before 200 psi poly pipe will pull in two or before adapters will pull out of the pipe.
