Securing Mac OS X Leopard is not an easy task - well, at least not one that you can do in 15 minutes. You could follow some simple guideline, but this one is THE guideline.

One more security guide on this wonderful OS - put your Leopard on a chain, in a cage, and use it safely ;)

Being written by Apple, I don’t think anyone else could give you any deeper explanation on Mac OS X security and how to set it up.

This guide is long, boring, and could be considered as targeted to VERY secure environments. You have been warned!
