I have two plugins in the dashboard, SEO WordPress and Custom Content Type Manager, and for security reasons I want to hide these from dashboard. How to do that?

I tried to hide the SEO WordPress with this:

// Remove Admin Dashboard menus
 function wp_admin_dashboard_remove_menus() {
     global $menu;
     $restricted = array(('Comments'), __('Users'), __('Updates'), __('wpseo_dashboard'));
     end ($menu);
     while (prev($menu)){
         $value = explode(' ',$menu[key($menu)][0]);
         if(in_array($value[0] != NULL?$value[0]:"" , $restricted)){
             unset($menu[key($menu)]);
         }
     }
 }

 add_action('admin_menu', 'wp_admin_dashboard_remove_menus');

Tried many combinations like: 

__('wpseo')
__('wp-seo')
__('wp_seo')

But the SEO menu did not hide.
