nfs security is not based only in ip addresses. You have username
and UIDs and permissions for the folders. Just like samba. You only need to
ensure that root-squase is correctly configured.

Hi Jennifer,
With NFS, the authentication is performed just by IP address. This
authentication my may be forged more easily than SMB, which is done by
login/pass. At this point, SMB is more secure.
If is not a hard work for you, use a ssh tunnel from clients to server using
SMB.
I think it is a quite more secure than pure SMB.
