Plugging into the network is like owning a house. You're at the edge of a 
public network, whether it be a road or a wire. Just as you lock your 
front door, there needs to be a way to lock your computer. It is up to the 
OS vendor to provide some user friendly means to access and secure ones 
computer.

>From a provider point of view, computer security is reactive, just like 
our local police force. You call them once your own space has been 
compromised to assist in catching the intruder.
