The NT security mechanisms are also more complicated, which in my opinion means there are more potential bugs.
Absolutely correct. However, I take some comfort from the fact that Dave Cutler, of VMS fame, was the principal engineer on NT. For all its (myriad) other faults, VMS is fairly secure out of the box.
I suppose "out of the box" means no DECNET then?
