Hmmm... The author of that blog has not followed things like
Bastille-Linux (http://www.bastille-linux.org/). There are actually
quite a number of ways to lock down systems. I think every distro has a
way to do it, and there are actually too many tools out there. :)
From the security perspective, it is actually much better to have
multiple ways to secure a system. If everyone used the identical
system, then one exploit could be used across all systems. Diversity is
a great boon to security.
