What is your opinion on disabling the root password and logging in only via a normal user account and then using sudo? This makes it impossible for someone to guess or steal the root password because there isn't one. It also means you never have to change the root passwords when an employee leaves. Any real downsides? I can't see any.
Why not just disable remote root logins? One argument against sudo is that generally user passwords may be easier to compromise than the root password.
