That is a very valid issue. It takes a fair amount of time to design a
hardened web server.
Why does such a thing have to be designed more than once?
Ask the developers?
If PHP, Perl, Apache and the FTP server were configured in
a hardened way, we would not have had to reconfigure them
as much as was needed.
Did you report the vulnerabilities you fixed to the corresponding projects?
