The *-security entry is enabled by default, IIRC, *unless* the installer was not able to contact it. This *may* have happened if you used an installer while chimaera was not yet released. Obviously, if you installed without a network connection, it will be disabled. Your sources.list should have appropriate comments if the installer disabled it. Whether you want *-updates enabled is debatable. And while writing this up I suddenly seem to remember the installer asking me what to enable/disable. That may have been an advanced mode installation though.
