  That is a contradiction.

  Security is about trust.  In order to trust another party, you have to
trust them to do the right thing.  You need to trust them to have a secure
system.  You need to trust them to have the latest patches.  To use a
firewall.  To not use the same password everywhere.  To not have viruses,
worms, spyware, and peer-to-peer programs on their computers.  And so on.  
You cannot have trust if you have no interaction.

  All the technology in the world won't help you if the problem is the
operator and not the computer.

  Anyone who says otherwise is trying to sell you something.
