Windows uses 4 file systems: FAT, NTFS, exFAT, and ReFS.
"Linux" supports dozens of file systems, there are too many to mention. The differences between them are massive and specific to the file system in question.
For a proper answer you need to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system .
It is incorrect to say "the Linux file system is faster than Windows" because it's dependent on the data, and of course because there is no "Linux file system." It's incorrect to say "The Linux filesystem is more/less secure than the Windows file system" for the same reason. Drive encryption is available in both Windows and Linux.
To the average user, there is no functional difference.
