The principle of "Attractive Nuisance" makes you liable for having an open network that someone uses for nefarious purposes.

If you have a secured network, then you are covered inasmuch as the prosecution needs to prove that you cooperated with the criminals who hack your system. There is no ipso facto assumption that if they are there, you are complicent.

I would be interested in case law that would support the idea that a secured network menas that you are liable for what hackers do when they illegally enter your system.
