Bug Description

CH43 does not touch on any of the following:

OS Hardening - I believe it is a mistake to have the one sentence referring to hardening be buried in the middle of the doc in another heading. IMHO, there should be a section that says, "please follow hardening best practices" even if that's all it says.
Password/Key Management - setting/creating them, using them to connect to instances, and managing them
Security Groups - creation/mgmt
Monitoring and Reporting - image changes, group changes, etc...
Updating Instances - users should still do it

Queued one small section - should I add everything (approximately 5 or 6 sections) all at once, or add smaller sections incrementally?
