If a channel is closed properly (cooperatively or via the latest state), your funds are safe. However, if a node is compromised or a malicious party tries to close a channel with an outdated state, this is where the importance of watchtowers or monitoring your channels comes in. They help ensure you can claim your rightful funds by broadcasting the correct state.
