I use a basic non-qr skewer that operates with a hex wrench on the front of my commuter bike. It's about 2mm more secure than a qr skewer - but it is lighter! I run a cable through the wheel when at work. Those skewers are only secure if the bad guy doesn't have a hex (or torx or security torx) on them. The ones that use a proprietary tool should be more secure
