Default Securing your NetBSD system

[ I vaguely recall a similar thread on the old forum... ]

NetBSD obviously offers a lot of the fundamental security advantages that many *nix systems provide. At the base system level we have the benefit of an advanced, well tested OS.

The manpages for security(8) are illuminating, but I wonder if there aren't further tips (sysctl MIBs? other configuration/hardening ideas?) specific to NetBSD that could help secure a system.

Is anyone using Veriexec, or any of the other NetBSD exploit mitigation tools? How about other NetBSD OS-level security tools or resources you would like to share?

Feedback appreciated.
