Your CentOS box is nowhere near as well-defended as an unattended human child.  
The child has millions of years of evolution providing it with an active 
self-improving immune system, a mammal’s agility, and an apex predator’s 
cunning.

If you want a human analogue to a CentOS box, it’s closer to a premature baby 
in a neonatal intensive care unit.  It requires constant inputs from the 
caregivers and strict adherence to basic guidance like “Don’t open all the 
doors leading outside at once” to keep these cared-for creations alive.
