I wonder if it is correct to speak of security by obscurity. Typically it is meant that the algoritms are withheld. When you implement security; you make use of available technologies, preferably known and reliable ones. Technologies used are known, not obscure.
The information of which technologies are implemented can be a secret. This does not make for security by obscurity.
