"Sidewinder" (your example) keys utilize a tumbler system in the cylinder that is quite difficult to pick or manipulate open. The keys require a very specific machine that, usually, only locksmiths will have to duplicate them. I cannot comment on how robust the cylinder itself is to resist drill attacks, or the quality of the chain or cable underneath that sheath.
