What sort of 'access' are you trying to prevent?

If someone has physical access then all bets are off, they just take
the whole thing and can see all the data on it.  You can't really
prevent that unless you install an encrypted OS.

Yes very true but the 2 easy vectors I can see are serial debug cable and
micro SD. If anything could be done to discourage it then that would be

Will look into encrypting the OS though. Good idea.
