Securing your system with passwords and pin codes could prevent kids and computer-inexperience people from gaining unauthorized access to your system (any system, ranging from mobile phones, laptop computers, etc.), but it will only slow down a hacker.
About four 4 years ago, I discovered this operating system called BackTrack a distro of Linux Operating Systems of which the latest version is now Linux Kali, specifically for hacking. While figuring out how this witch of the night works, I realized I have been very stupid trying to secure my system from hackers by setting a password. I understand that many people secure their computers with password so that their children or someone who is less technically savvy would not access their computers and tamper with something or an important file. If you are securing your computer from your Wife, Kid, Aunt, etc. so that they don't ruin your important file, then "passwording" is great, but if you think you are securing your computer to prevent a hacker who has been paid $10,000 to retrieve a file from your system from gaining access, then you should think again.
Passwords don't secure your system from smart hackers, especially the paid ones, it only slows them down and add a bit more task to their to do list.
