I don't believe this. Nearly anything complex and networked, after a few months investigation by a good security professional, will have a good number of exploits found.
These could be plain old bugs, or they could be planted backdoors. (usually indistinguishable)
Even after months of effort, there is a high probability there remain undiscovered security issues (either deliberate or accidental) that more effort would have found.
For that reason, I don't believe any claim when they say "nah, we couldn't find anything". They either didn't look, or don't want to reveal what they found.
