It's more secure that coax but less than fiber optics. Wire tapping is doable but no as simple as for coax. Also if you use UTP some equipment allows to read information without tapping the cable. It attached to the cable and give opportunity to collect information in a "remote" way.

Which UTP wiring uses for twisted wire pairs?

Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) wiring typically uses four twisted wire pairs for data transmission. The most common categories of UTP wiring are Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a, each supporting different data rates and bandwidths. These twisted pairs help reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, making UTP suitable for networking applications like Ethernet.
