If you've been breached its no longer your machine, you'd just be putting
patches on someonelses box ;)

format and restore is the best way.

apply all the current patches from www.cobalt.com/support

although some builds are old e.g. apache there aren't any vulenrabilities if
you take a few precautions.

don't give out shell accounts and don't run services you done need, run the
boxes behind a secure firewall and vet any scripts/programs that clients
want to run.

keep checking the systems for updates/running processes/changed files
security is a continual issue not a fix and forget

after that you sleep better, prevention is better than cure.
