OS Security

What would be some good ways of implementing security in a dos based OS?
Any Info would be quite helpful, thanks.

Encrypt the file system.

Ask the user for a password when the system boots. Then hook into the BIOS calls that read and write from the disk and decrypt and encrypt data.

Thats great…got anything else?

Does anyone have any security for, say, storing passwords, or logging on over a network, or anti-virus cosing, or something?
