There are things control panels come with that are usually on by default that can cause security problems. You could turn them off though but that would take some time. I would bet most control panels have plenty of security issues every now and then. Although some like cPanel can update automagically.
I've been using cPanel for years, pretty good control panel. Recently I moved most of my stuff to natnet(no control panel). Logging in to their site and saying "add this email please" is usually just as easy as doing it myself in cpanel. So far they respond plenty fast enough(1m-2m), but the day they don't is the day I'll be one sad panda wishing I had a control panel... Hopefully that day never comes.
