Open source security products do not generally carry the same following as their business suite and operating system brethren. However, the same reasons for supporting open source products in general also apply to open source security applications.

Even when the cost of paid support is factored in, they provide much more bang for the buck.

Bastille Hardening program is at http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net/ and http://www.bastille-unix.org/
(that site has a note about the name change being provoked by a domain squatter grabbing the original name, the one linked in your article).

Thanks for your useful two-part article.
