Sounds about right. Look at Vista for example - somewhat slow by all accounts, but its security is excellent, thanks to MS waking up to the fact that if they kept putting out shit they'd start loosing their dominance. Can you say the same for Starfleet?

You almost could, the lattest generation of ships is quite a bit better than the previous.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

In terms of computer security? Not really. Hell, Voyager's systems almost got destroyed by freaking cheese.

Voyager gave us laughs. Unfortunately, it also gave us garbage canon. :x

Captain: "Right, everything's under control. Computer: turn off the self-destruct."

Computer: "Are you sure you wish to close this program?"

Captain: "Yes! Close it!"

Computer: "This program is not responding."
