kern.securelevel

[Tim Judd]

Something dawned on me.  FreeBSD/Open/Net are all well secured
systems.  On an Internet-facing router, would applying a higher
kern.securelevel provide any better, tighter, higher security if the
machine was broken into?  Given you need to lower the securelevel
before multiuser, it is a reasonable to think raising the securelevel
will give higher comfort feeling?


I know this is a logical/thinking/mind question, but that's what I'm asking for.
