Cpanel: freeBSD or Redhat

I've always run my Cpanel servers in combination with Redhat Linux. I'm moving to a new server in 8 days time and am considering switching to freeBSD instead of Redhat, as there seem to be many FreeBSD supporters out there.

I just wanted to know what the advantages/disadvantages are of freeBSD compared to Redhat, keeping in mind that I'll be using Cpanel, which has been used on the Redhat platform a good deal longer than it has on FreeBSD. One of my largest concerns is of course security? How secure is freeBSD compared to Redhat and are there packages like Bastille etc. available for freeBSD, as Bastille doesn't seem to have a FreeBSD compatible version available.

Thanks for the advice.
