I got recommended this wallet by a friend and they said its secure because the server will not know your password
but you will be vunerable by malicious software i have a malware bytes installed and dont really install anything
 I dont trust so I think I will be safe in that manner.

You are safe using blockchain.info do not forget your password though and I recommend you setup 2 factor authorization.

I have been using blockchain about a year and I have no issue at all although we ever heard hacking incident.
It's so simple to use it and no need to install at all

Safe enough for pocket change.
Never trust a third party with loads of coins.
Only use hot wallets for pocket change.
Put the rest in cold storage.

If you use an email, authorization will be asked every time you try to log in.

So you could use 2FA in your email or in the blockchain account for extra security, along with a valid email
