MongoDB by defaults does not have authentication and no encryption of data or protocol. This makes it pretty easy to target from a security perspective. However, to answer your question, MongoDB is secure! It is just a matter of knowing how to set up, configure, and work with the installation.

Using the following simple measures, you can strengthen the security level of your MongoDB

Avoid using default ports
Enabling user authentication immediately
Force SSL usage on the database
Use LDAP to force password rotations
Limit your database access to known network devices

The above are just a few methods that can help you improve the security of your MongoDB database. To know more about the security measures on securing your MongoDB you can visit their site https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/administration/security-checklist/#encrypt-communication
