All the useful Powerline devices are either connected to your
hosts via WiFi or ethernet, so that leaves them out.
In a single-family house, Powerline is about as secure as wired
ethernet: you need to come in and plug something in to spy on
it.
In an apartment block or other shared-infrastructure situation,
Powerline is potentially as insecure as WiFi.
Most people use Powerline as a substitute for running a single
ethernet cable across a house: it's pretty good but not perfect.
Multistation Powerline is less effective.
