Every system might have weaknesses. What matters is:
1. Small surface for attack. With NaCl it is all concentrated in single tiny validator module. The model is also simple and mathematically proven to be secure.
2. Prior testing. It is especially hard for security product. Establishing motivating prizes is good way to ensure it is not easily breakable.
3. The speed with which patch is made available
4. Defense-in-depth, ability to have multiple levels of defense cheaply.
