Simply put, I am not aware of any heavily publicised security breaches with Live Mesh like there have been Dropbox. The impression I've had in recent times (something presumably shared by the article's author) is that security is something that Microsoft takes very seriously these days.

But at least they've already learnt that security is a serious issue and tightened things up - something dropbox (and other players from recent hacking scandals) are only just learning.
