"Is it something I should start looking into?" No. Don't bother. The only BSD that has a security edge over linux is OpenBSD and you're probably not happy to lose the performance (and often hardware support) it would entail. It's also lacking a lot of the platform management linux systems have (package management stone ages - you won't have fun upgrading it). It's great for critical systems, though. It's just the majority of the time I'm not willing to give up the niceties I would have to.
