The PmWiki site is open and receives its share of spam. However, there are a lot of eyes who check out the site and keep it relatively clean. Perhaps the best source to learn how to secure your site is the PmWiki Security site.[1] At the very least, I would encourage imposing edit and admin passwords and provide them to each trusted user. For "full blown" protection, then the AuthUser feature allows you to control user access on a per-user rather than by email.[2]
