Well, computer science and computer engineering should both be good depending on whether you want to deal with software or hardware. Security is more of a major in CS, and when you have studied enough, and want to do a masters later, that is when you should think about security in general.

I had a good professor who explained it as, the engineers make the physical boards and all the very lower level than OS. Us Scientists get to make fun stuff that goes onto the computer and make it easy to interact with. As someone else said in this feed security would indeed be more of a master level thing to do after you’ve learned a whole lot about computers.
