Use of ‘secured’

Have I correctly used the word ‘secured’ in the following sentence? Is there any other word I can use besides it?

Let us be more secured, so that such a crime will not happen again.

The sentence is not right. You'd say instead something like the following: We need better security so that such a crime will not happen again. The building needs to be secured better so that such a crime will not happen again.
