I think my point wasn't about what computer security precisely does, but about the mindset of people who do it (security people cultivate an adversarial point of view about systems).

My secondary point is that computer security is a very solid field, and doesn't look wishy washy or science fictiony. It has serious conferences, it has research centers, industry labs, intellectual firepower, etc.
