Unless you have a private network AND you guard every inch or centimeter of it, fiber-optic networks are still vulnerable to wiretapping and eavesdropping.
Even though there is no electromagnetic radiation or crosstalk from a fiber-optic line and, wiretapping is not as simple as clipping on copper wires, eavesdropping on a fiber-optic network can be achieved with splitter/regenerator devices or with micro-bending clamps, which can capture light off the fiber.
The biggest vulnerability exists at the switching and repeater points where signals are split-out and regenerated.
