OS X Security Tips from the NSA
The National Security Agency knows a thing or two about security in general, and it seems that Macs have infiltrated the Agency. Why else would the Systems and Network Attack Center (SNAC to you) compose a 109 page document entitled, 'Apple Mac OS X v10.3 "Panther" Security Configuration Guide?' Plus this is Guide Version 1.1 so not only was it penned in the first pace, but it has seen been revised.The guide is thorough, and contains some good information even for those of you who aren't spies.

this document is old and is complete paranoid for the average desktop user

I downloaded the guide. stuff every mac user should already know, but it is pretty cool that they've done this. If you look at some pages with a desktop pic you can see that theres two HDs, one saying "Panther" and one saying "Tiger." Kinda interesting, to me at least.
