The basic security model is the same, and therefore these two systems share their primary weaknesses. Any user who uses su or sudo must be considered to be a privileged user. If that user's account is compromised by an attacker, the attacker can also gain root privileges the next time the user does so. The user account is the weak link in this chain, and so must be protected with the same care as root.
Le compte admin sous Windows d'un point de vue securite est equivalent a un user avec sudo sous Linux.

Isn't sudo less secure than su?
