Modern smart locks (Yale, Schlage Encode, Kwikset Halo, August Pro) use AES-128 encryption and are at least as secure as standard deadbolts. The bigger risk in Southern Highlands is the door itself — most break-ins happen by kicking the door frame, not picking the lock.
Physical picking is identical to a normal deadbolt. Bluetooth-only models have shown some vulnerabilities historically; Wi-Fi connected models with proper updates have a strong security track record. Pair with a monitored alarm for full coverage.
