For serious Windows gaming, a dedicated Windows PC is preferable to putting Boot Camp on a Mac. The graphics options will allow for so much more, especially the framerate on the higher level games.
Windows 7 and 8.x are also much better from a security point of view than their predecessors, just as OS X seems to have gotten worse. Most of keeping secure on any computer is mostly common sense: don't log in as an Administrator and only run programs as one if you have to, use a good AV program and keep it up to date, pick hard to guess passwords and never use them with more than one account, and remember Mrs Chastity McKee does not have umpteen millions she wants to share with you.
