Easiest way will be to create a .bbappend file in your layer which sets
DROPBEAR_EXTRA_ARGS="-s -g"
-s Disable password logins.
-g Disable password logins for root.

do_install_append() {

case "${MACHINE}" in "my_special_machine" )
echo 'DROPBEAR_EXTRA_ARGS="-s -g"'> ${D}${sysconfdir}/default/dropbear;;
*);;

esac
}
