It's not. You can steal the pad (and you have to get each person that pad which is a time of vulnerability) or socially engineer the person, and it also depends on the entropy and the algorithm used. You need a very long one time pad to be safe from brute force, and the algorithm needs to not have a backdoor (which isn't as easy as it seems). And even that's not forever safe one we get quantum computers.
