In a time when there are frequent reports of major companies suffering major break-ins via the Internet, along with the associated theft of information and system downtime, it makes sense to have a second and even a third set of eyes review your security architecture. Many UNIX servers come shipped, by default, with lots of unneeded services enabled, and often more services are added on top with little or no thought to strong security measures. For many sites, this methodology works just fine - until one day, there is a major security breach.
System security is very much like physical security.
You can secure a wood door with a deadbolt, but it is still susceptible to a door ram or a Milwaukee Sawz-All. You can put your valuables in a bank vault, but someone with the right tools and sufficient time will still manage to break in. Physical security is all about deterrence. The goal is to put up enough defenses that breaking in is really not worth the effort. System security is the same way.
