That should weed out the spam bots.
As for plug-ins, be careful. Sometimes plugins can become a security threat later, or even turn rouge by the publisher. If it happens after countless plugins have been installed with custom templates it can become a real fucking nightmare, trust me.
As for security, that's the best part about forking the dough over to VB. You don't need any 3rd party security plugins outside of keeping your install updated. VB is diligent with their updates to keep everything fairly secure.

That's the bitch of it....
I HAVE captcha, image verification and email confirmation setup for new registers and it is NOT weeding out the bots.
I have Akismit but there was something up with it, don't recall what exactly I'll go look at it again this afternoon.
