It's just as secure as keys as it is though. If you drop your physical keys they still work as keys and also can't be revoked.


More secure than keys—you can't remote-wipe keys. (And, presuming the network requires a password, remote-wiping the phone would make it not join the network any more.)


Re-keying the locks is kind of like remote wiping all the keys at once. Certainly not as fine grained, but will work in a pinch.


You could also edit the home automation script or block the phone on the router if remote wipe isn't an option.
