I hate Windows with a firey passion and use linux top to bottom on all my projects and devices, but I have to disagree with you. Windows can be quite secure, as is evidenced by the last several decades of most corporate and military IT systems using it. Not having backups and untrained admins are platform agnostic security issues.
Which is somewhat disturbing, because first the industry is still considered more important than civil services (city councils, hospitals). And second they will still continue using Windows services in their backbones. I have nothing against using Windows as frontends, but in the backbone of a critical company it's criminal negligence. Easy to hack, no backups, untrained admins with no idea about security. Wasting billions on money on theatre, and not working servers, groupware and email.
