The concept is simple, the more obstacles in the way the better. Let me abstract the concept for you…..

…..you put your file in a safe, I crack into the safe.

………you put your file in a safe, and lock the safe in a strong/secure room, I crack the room then the safe.

………..You put the file in the safe, in the room, at the bottom of the ocean, I go elsehere to get a different file!
