Do you really need that much security? What is it you're securing, exactly? Neither my cookie recipe nor the extensive collection of h0rse is worth a great deal of effort to deny others access; I don't have need for obtrusive security measures.

If you do have secrets that are valuable enough to justify the effort; have you really put in the effort to secure them? Or have you got multifactor authentication and fancy encryption happening on a system that's physically available to anybody from the janitorial services company all night? The equivalent of a big impressive vault door standing alone without walls around it.
