"The Subversion system attempts to improve the usability and security of the CVS application"

Actually Subversion improves on the core functionality of CVS, clearing up a number of extremely annoying architecture-level bugs. The 'usability' is really no different since its CLI is deliberately designed to be similar to CVS 'unless their is a compelling reason' to differ (according to its authors). For information on add-on user interfaces for both CVS and Subversion, try TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) or TortoiseCVS (http://www.tortoisecvs.org/).
