NFS and security

In the near future I am going to be connecting two

linux boxes together, workstation to file server.  The
only way I know of to do this is to use NFS.  However,
everytime I read something about NFS it states how
insecure it is.  Is there a way to do this that is
more secure than NFS, or are there procedures to make
NFS more secure?  They will connect to the internet
shortly after being set-up, so I am concerned about
the security issue.
