Security:
Yes netdata listens on whatever interface has network connectivity, but it does not access anything outside your network to transmit data, and does not forward any ports to itself using UPNP or NAT-PNP. The only way this would be open to the world is if you set up a port forward. It is not "open to the world" if you install it on a public facing server unless you have no firewall set up on the machine. That would be your own problem, and not one for Netdata to solve.
"netdata keeps all the data on the server they are collected." from their Wiki since nobody here read it.
Centralization:
There are already a ton of products out there that harvest monitoring data from agents and put it in a database on a central server. If you like that model, then go use it. This is not that, and was never designed to be that. It uses cookies and other stuff in your browser to see what other Netdata servers you have accessed (with that browser). That data (stored in your own browser) is used by the netdata dashboard on any of the servers to build a jumplist so you can jump to those machines from within the WebUI. If you REALLY want a centralized place to dump data from all machines, you will have to use the features from this latest release to ship data to Grafana, or some other visualization stack. If you bothered to read the release you would know about the Backends they support:
"netdata supports data archiving to backend databases:
Graphite
OpenTSDB
Prometheus
and of course all the compatible ones (KairosDB, InfluxDB, Blueflood, etc)" - from the wiki
Again, this is all information that can be gathered by reading the release, and the front page of the Wiki. I have only used Netdata on one machine so I am no expert so don't ask me to explain things in more detail. Shit, this post was probably too long for you so I'll make a TL;DR for those who have the attention span of a doorknob.
TL;DR RTFM and stop crying.
