Although for Linux and Unix most of the principles apply to Windows as well.
There are books on the subject too.

NO. First up, assuming you manage to plug in all the existing
vulnerabilities (and that is a big assumption in itself), you can never
guarantee security of code from a whole new as-yet-undiscovered class of
vulnerabilities. This is like asking, can I have a 100% secure hack-proof
server/network/firewall. One can only raise the barrier higher and get the
percentages on your side.
