I think the statement here is misleading. From what I read on ZDnet it wasn't security resons, just that their systems are complicated and that they were not sure about how to integrate and replace all the existing applications. Since I think Netproject have been involved its would probably be worth contacting Eddie Bleasdale there to find the real story.
Yes, security seems a weird reason to choose. A bit like saying Linux is no good because it's closed source.
In any case there is another reason cited here http://www.vnunet.com/News/1151880 and discussed here:
