I'm not necessarily sure in indictes a security problem. I suspect it's just
some cron-like process which is reading bits of your logs and mailing a
summary of them to you, like "logwatch" does perhaps. Anyway I think it's
probably a FreeBSD thing, so if you've got questions about the "security run
output" process then it's probably a good idea to seek out a FreeBSD mailing
list.
