I guess what you wanted is to stop people from gaining root access by issuing the "su" command. Let me elaborate, to gain access to root, one would require the "su" program and the "password" of root. Stopping the use of su command won't keep you safe if people knew the root password, because they could still try telnet, rlogin etc.

The most important part is to keep the root "password" away from people.
