Hello Brian,

The short  answer is YES. The correct answer is you have to 
read quite a lot (I'm in the middle of that) and decide
which 'path/technology' you want to follow. Here's docs
you should start looking at:

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/

I choose 'SElinux' as the path to follow for me
that makes most sense. Since the NSA was the prime
motivator, it's an easy path to convince my clients
to follow. Although SElinux is not a complete
solution, other complementary software  combined with 
SElinux does provide for a complete (security) solution,
almost.....
