Typically a source code leak is a safety danger. But with open source applications it is available from the start. How do you prevent people from intruding when all safety measurements can be plainly seen?

Open source = more eyes = more people to spot vulnerabilities/flaws. Programmers can see how open source software works and can point out vulnerabilities to the code maintainers. Closed source software has less people reviewing the code so less people to spot vulnerabilities. The result is that closed software may have flaws that only become visible when code is leaked.
