If you look at their implementation, it's a lot more secure than most implementations. Client-certificate based authentication, provisioning, etc.
The only thing it can't do is prevent connections from devices with expired certificates ie: you can't prevent them from trying to connect.
It's up to you to do signed firmware etc, but from a communications infrastructure and management point of view they're better than what you can do in a reasonable amount of time.
The other thing it cannot protect against is Amazon siphoning any data these widgets can collect about your personal life...so that you may be fully monetized for wealth and enjoyment.
