There is some inconsistency between what this recommends and what is in the Mac OSX Security Config guide.
If you are securing a computer for non-network use in a closed space, some of the changes are unnecessary.
Still needs a thorough look through of both things.
My 2 cents.

Found NSA's "Hardening Tips for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard" today while
checking FAQ links:
http://www.nsa.gov/ia/_files/factsheets/macosx_10_6_hardeningtips.pdf
"The following trifold contains, in order of importance, high- impact tips
designed for use by an administrative user of Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard."
Looks like a two page digest of the most important parts of Apple's 272
page "Mac OS X Security Configuration For Mac OS X Version 10.6 Snow
Leopard", that includes both security settings and good behavior
information.
