Reading Bruce Schneier made me especially aware that security has a strong economic component--its not that you can make your server secure against all threats, but with the right tools you may be able to make it uneconomic for the threats you are most worried about. There's probably not much you can do to defend against an NSA-scale attacker that's targeting you individually. But if you're more concerned about NSA-style dragnets or their corporate equivalents, OpenBSD can help.
