Are security plugins that good?

[Andrea]

I think WordPress is very secure as it is. I have never personally seen a WP site that was compromised. Many vulnerabilities comes from plugins. But hackers get clever and clever so some kind of improved security wouldnt hurt.

Yeah I totally agree. Wordpress always seemed secure enough for me, I never had a problem with a virus or any kind of hijacking. Plus, with those plugins, they're usually not made by the group at wordpress anyways, so why use it if it's not them dishing it out?
