Interesting question. I don't think either one is technically harder than the other, although I think the list of equipment on the Security lab makes it tougher to study for, as finding IDSs, VPN concentrators, and the server software is much tougher than buying 2600s on EBay. There are also many more R&S CCIEs in the world than Security, so possibly it may easier to find a job with the Security. But then again, I don't see too many jobs that specifically mention 'R&S' or 'Security'. I believe that most employers feel that if you can pass one, the others wouldn't be too much of a stretch. Just my .02 though.
