I can agree with Simon for a change...  :)

Most of the problems I have seen in terms of "break-ins" have been at the host OS level and not problems with the emulators.
I know of one client that has had multiple intrusions with NO impact on the OpenVMS system itself other than being inaccessible because of the network.  OpenVMS itself was not affected at all.  I see the same issue with the VMs.  OpenVMS is not the problem here, only the underlying host.
