Remove the quotes, i.e.

  <xsl:if test="//*/*/*/security-object[@id = $node]">

because with the quotes you're testing if the id attribute is equals to string "$node", not the string value of variable node. Also, it's better to use 

  <xsl:variable name="node" select="'TESTNODE'"/>

to bind a string to a variable.
