It really isn't. /etc/security contains configuration data for
system-wide OS security subsystems like auditing, RBAC, and Trusted
Extensions. Lots of other services have their own security-relevant
configuration settings, but they are kept in their own service
configuration files and directories, usually under /etc/<service>.
