As far as web based financial programs, it is not the ability of someone to "steal" money out of your account that is the major problem. The major problem is the ability of someone to look at your company's information and business practice. This information although aquired illegally, could then be used by someone (legally as far as you know) to beat you to market with new products, ideas etc.

Sensitive data (encrypted if need be - but quick books does not encrypt) will always be safer if managed locally.
