XProtect (Appels Malware detector) which is part of Snow Leopard, was updated. I count that as a security update.

It is. See also my comment below.

I actually thought that the new Lightning connector did employ as much digital bandwidth as the old 30-pin connector, which it apparently doesn't do. I based my comment on that, so sorry for the false information. Turns out the only advantage is greater power bandwidth which is bidirectional, which USB does not currently employ as far as I know.
